Dr. Srinivasan began production on a film starring himself in the lead role. He named the film Lathika after his daughter.
A critic from Dinamalar wrote that Ra. Bharathan could have put more focus into the story, screenplay, dialogues, songs and music.
Through his financial company, Baba Trading Company, Srinivasan obtained Rs. 7 crore rupees from unsuspecting businessmen and used the money to begin a career in films through this film.
