Production
Bharathiraja was an assistant director.[2] [3] The film was shot at Vauhini Studios. M. G. Ramachandran, who was shooting another film in the same studio, noticed Srinivasan inebriated and declared he was perfectly cast for Athirshtam Azhaikkirathu.[4]

Reception
Kanthan of Kalki praised Srividya's performance and said Janaki was the pulse of the film, but criticised a subplot featuring two engineers in love as distracting to the main plot.[6]
