The team shot in the earthquake devastated village of Adhoi in Gujarat and became the first crew in fifty years to go there for a film shooting. A stage came where the crew had to seek police help to continue shooting due to crowd trouble.^[2]

Release

A critic noted that " very bad performance by Prasanna, there is a long way to go for him. As for his female lead Neelam, her looks and acting is the highlight of the film. The storyline is fresh and appealing."^[3] The film's low key release meant that the film went unnoticed at the box office.

Soundtrack
