Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
STR reportedly learned basic snake handling for the role, though most close-ups used trained handlers. The cobra was allegedly named 'Raja' after Bharathiraja.
The film taps into real Tamil Nadu anxieties about 'pariharam' (astrological remedies), where families spend fortunes avoiding predicted doom — often destroying themselves in the process.
