Randor Guy stated the article not many are aware the lyricist Kannadasan got his break in this film with his first song Kalangathiru Manamey for which K. Ramnoth paid him 100 rupees as remuneration. Ramnoth used an innovation for the Voice of the "Male" Madhuri Devi. He made the noted stage, Screen and TV Star V. Gopalakrishnan (Gopi), then a college student and working with K. Ramnoth his disciple lend his voice to the actress(Madhuri Devi). To economise on dubbing, he did not project the sequences on a screen in a recording theatre as is normally done but asked Gopi to utter the lines listening to the Original dialogue spoken Madhuri Devi through an ear phone from the projector many were sceptical about his experiment. But it turned out to be a success.[1]
