Production

Panchagni is loosely inspired from the life of naxalite activist K. Ajitha who was an active part of the Naxalite movement that took place in Kerala in the 1960s. It was one of the few films in Malayalam that discussed the naxals.

After M. T. Vasudevan Nair completed the screenplay of Panchagni, Hariharan decided to produce the film himself under his company Gayathri Cinema. During the pre-production of the film, G. P. Vijayakumar telephoned Hariharan and informed his wish to produce a Hariharan-M.T. Vasudevan Nair film under his newly formed production company, Seven Arts. Hariharan agreed and handed over the production to Vijayakumar.
