Production
Despite being a film with the grandeur of Hollywood and French classics; director Priyadarshan efficiently managed to complete the film at an unbelievably small budget of 3.5 crores. The shooting of the film was completed in 72 days at Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Post production activities took more than four months to complete. Composer Ilaiyaraaja completed his symphonic score in 16 days; while audiographer Deepan Chatterji completed the Sound Design and mix in 90 days. Overwhelmed by the outcome of the film, technicians including art director Sabu Cyril and cinematographer Santhosh Sivan accepted no remuneration. This is the first Malayalam film to record in Dolby soundtrack.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
“The production of obscurity in Paris compares to the production of motor cars in Detroit in the great period of American industry.”

“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
