Production

Iruvar Ullam was directed by L. V. Prasad and produced by A. Anand under Prasad Movies. The film is based on Lakshmi's novel Pen Manam, which was previously adapted into the Telugu film Bharya Bhartalu (1961). However Lakshmi's name was not credited in the opening titles. The screenplay was written by M. Karunanidhi, who received a salary of ₹20,000 (equivalent to ₹1.8 million or US$19,000 in 2026). Cinematography was handled by K. S.

One scene in the film called for an aggressive performance by B. Saroja Devi. Sivaji Ganesan sought to outdo her acting in the scene. While it was being filmed, Prasad stopped filming and told Ganesan that he should not upstage Saroja Devi as the scene required her to dominate, and if Ganesan did so it would ruin the film. Ganesan complied, and at Prasad's request, underplayed his role. Iruvar Ullam was the final Tamil film directed by Prasad.
