Production[edit]

After making several unsuccessful films during the mid 1990s, P. Vasu made a comeback with Vaimaye Vellum (1997) and the good performance of the film, fetched him an opportunity from Good Luck Films to make Paththini, said to be loosely based on the Hollywood film, Sleeping with the Enemy (1991). The venture saw the team from the successful 1993 film Purusha Lakshanam collaborate again with the producers, director, actor and actress returning to make Paththini.[3]

The soundtrack was composed by Deva.[4][5] Lyrics were written by Vaali, Kalidasan, Piraisoodan and Valampuri John.
