Production
The shooting for Thunichal began in 2005,[3] and ended in 2007. Subsequently, the film was scheduled to release in 2008 but did not after Arun Vijay did not dub for the film. Producer P. Kalidas filed a court case against Arun for delaying dubbing for the film. The court verdict was a hold on Arun’s next film Maanja Velu (2010)'s release till Thunichal released.[4]
Soundtrack
The soundtrack was the first soundtrack composed by music director Premji Amaran, who during the postponement of the film, went on to become a popular actor. The film is one of two films—the other being Nenjathai Killadhe (2008)—that he worked outside the Chennai 600028 gang.[5]
