Interesting facts

Meera Jaakirathai is the 2016 Tamil-language horror film directed by R. G. Kesvan, produced by Anthony Edward, and written by K. Mageswaran. The film features Surendar, Monica, and Bobby Simha. The music for the film was composed by Raj with cinematography by Veeramani and editing by Shyjith Kumaran. The film, having been in production for six years, released on 27 May 2016 to negative reviews.

Production

In 2010, producer Kesavan decided to finance a film directed by Sathish, a contestant from the reality show Naalaiya Iyakkunar. Sathish subsequently selected his friend, Bobby Simha, then a small-time actor, to portray a negative role in the film. The shoot for the film was primarily completed in a week-long schedule at Tiruchengode.

In May 2016, the production team suddenly started promoting the film through posters in newspapers, after having completed the film with extra scenes, involving actress Monica. After finding the promotional material, Bobby Simha complained to the Nadigar Sangam, claiming that he didn't recall starring in such a film and that the producers had used pictures from his previous film, Urumeen (2015).
