Soundtrack
The music was composed by Shankar–Ganesh, with lyrics by Kannadasan.[4] Sivakumar told Thevar that there should be a song where the protagonist sings to himself about the misery of having a good wife but a hellish life. Thevar and Sivakumar then told Kannadasan that they wanted a song to explain how a loving wife loved her husband too much, fuelling doubts which ruined their lives. This led to the creation of the song "Thanneerai Neruppu Enru".[5]
