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:
“Constant revolutionizing of production ... distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“To expect to increase prices and then to maintain them at a higher level by means of a plan which must of necessity increase production while decreasing consumption is to fly in the face of an economic law as well established as any law of nature.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“In the production of the necessaries of life Nature is ready enough to assist man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
