An item number was shot in 2000 with Vijay and Sophia Haque for the film.The films delay led to Azhagam Perumal being labelled by the media as an unlucky director, also as his first film Mudhal Mudhalaaga starring Arvind Swamy and Karisma Kapoor had also failed to take off. He however signed on to direct Dumm Dumm Dumm, a film produced by Mani Ratnam, which became a box office success. ........
