Plot

The film follows the conflict between two families over their plantations.

Cast

Production

The film's title is derived from a song from a previous Amaran directorial, Enga Ooru Pattukaran (1987). The film was launched at Prasad Studios and the song "Vaasalile Poosanipoo" was recorded on the same day.

Soundtrack

The songs were composed by Ilaiyaraaja. The song "Manja Podi" is a slower version of the song "Mata Rani Mounamidi" from the Telugu film Maharshi (1987). It is set to the raga Keeravani.

Critical reception

N. Krishnaswamy of The Indian Express wrote that Gangai Amaran "has paced the film well and the drama keeps building up". Jayamanmadhan (a duo) of Kalki praised the performances of Chandrasekhar and Smitha, and Ilaiyaraaja's music but panned the humour of Senthil, Chandran and Moorthy and concluded saying Amaran has mastered the trick of making a film neatly without spending too much and without pomp but a little more knitting would have taken a little more.
