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:
“By bourgeoisie is meant the class of modern capitalists, owners of the means of social production and employers of wage labor. By proletariat, the class of modern wage laborers who, having no means of production of their own, are reduced to selling their labor power in order to live.”
—Friedrich Engels (1820–1895)
“The problem of culture is seldom grasped correctly. The goal of a culture is not the greatest possible happiness of a people, nor is it the unhindered development of all their talents; instead, culture shows itself in the correct proportion of these developments. Its aim points beyond earthly happiness: the production of great works is the aim of culture.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“The production of obscurity in Paris compares to the production of motor cars in Detroit in the great period of American industry.”
—Ernest Gellner (b. 1925)
