 The failure of the film ended the partnership between Rahman and Praveen Kanth, with the composer refusing to score the music for the director's next venture, "Thullal".Plans were made in 2003 to remake the film in Telugu as "Mahendra", but the venture never took off.However, in 2005 it was dubbed and released in Telugu as "Takkari Donga Chakkani Chukka".
