Production

Thulasidas' first film Onninu Purake Mattonnu (1988) was an average grosser at the box office. After watching Summer of '42 (1971) in Casino theatre, Madras (now Chennai), a part of the film struck him and he developed it into a script. It was given a working title, Layanam. He then started searching for producer who could bankroll the project.

While discussing about the casting, Thulasidas suggested Sumalatha as the female lead. While writing the script, Thulasidas had considered Sumalatha or Lakshmi for the lead role. A production manager was sent to talk with Sumalatha and Lakshmi. However, both of them couldn't accept the role due to their prior commitments. It was Choudary who successfully suggested Silk Smitha for the role.
