The film's score and soundtrack were composed by Ilayaraja. The film marked the return of Sheela as an actress and the film debut of Nayanthara. It won five awards at Filmfare Awards South.

Production

Manassinakkare was Nayanthara's debut film. During pre-production, Sathyan cast every major character except the role of Gowi, for which he sought a newcomer to keep Sheela as the major attraction in the cast. Filming was in Pattambi, Palakkad, with the major location being the house of Kochu Thresia. Since Gauri's scenes were not involved in the house, Sathyan started filming hoping he could find a cast before wrapping.
