Production

R. M. Ramanathan produced Udayanan Vasavadatta under his own banner, Uma Pictures. Initially, M. K. Thyagaraja Bhagavathar was to do the role of Udayanan. Bhagavathar even had sung some songs and some scenes were shot for the film featuring him, but due to his conviction in the Lakshmikanthan murder case, all of the scenes he had shot and the songs he had recorded were abandoned. Bhagavathar was subsequently replaced with G. N. Balasubramaniam.

The film's cinematography was by Marcus Bartley while F. Nagoor and M. Natesan, who later became a producer himself, were in charge of the set and costume designing respectively. The songs were co-choreographed by V. B. Ramaiah Pillai and Kamini Kumar Sinha.
