Production
After the success of Kadhal Kottai (1996) and Kaalamellam Kadhal Vaazhga (1997), 'Sivashakthi' Pandian announced he was set to make another love story Kaadhale Nimmadhi, written and directed by newcomer Rajan, who gave himself the stagename of Indiran.[1] Prashanth had initially been signed on to portray the lead role, though opted out post the success of Jeans (1998), and was replaced by Suriya.[2] The débutante lead actress, Jeevitha Sharma, a fifteen-year-old at the time, was noticed by producer 'Sivashakthi' Pandian in his search for a new heroine for the film. The producer also opened a contest in Kumudam magazine to rename Jeevitha and give her a stage name to suit Tamil tastes and traditions. She was later christened as Kavitha by the producer before the film's release.[3]
Release
A critic from Indolink.com gave the film a positive review suggesting that audiences should "treat themselves to this movie, which is completely suitable for the entire family", though the critic claims that Suriya "again shows his inability to act" but praises the performances of Manivannan and Raadhika.[4] The film did not do well at the box-office.[5]
