Production

Chandrasekhar initially planned to remake his Kannada film Geluvu Nannade as Vetri Namadhe with Vijayakanth and Mohan in lead roles; however the project was shelved after Mohan left the film hence Chandrasekhar started another project which eventually became Saatchi. The lead role was offered to Prabhu, and later Karthik, both of whom declined; Vijayakanth was ultimately cast. The film was launched on 9 May 1983 at AVM Studios.
