Production
After the success of the Malayalam film '4 the People', Jayaraj remade the film in Telugu with Sravanthi Ravi Kishore as the producer. The film retains much of the cast of the original film. This film marks the film debut of lyricist Ramajogayya Sastry and cinematographer Guna. This film marks the entry of Bharath into Telugu cinema after the success of the dubbed Telugu version of 'Boys' (2003). It also marks the Telugu debut of Jayaraj, Gopika, and Jassie Gift. Malayalam actor Narain was credited as Suresh Menon in the film.
Soundtrack
The songs were reused from the original film 4 the People.
Release
The film released on 4 November, coinciding with Diwali. Unlike the original, the film was a box office failure, but did not lose money due to the film's shoestring budget.
Gudipoodi Srihari of 'The Hindu' compared the film with 'Tagore'. Jeevi of 'Idlebrain.com' said that "The plus points are music and modern taking. Minus points are predictability in story and no surprise/shocking elements". A critic from 'Full Hyderabad' wrote that "Jassie Gift's music is the only point of the movie worth sitting up for".
