Production
[edit]The shooting for Thunichal began shooting in September 2007 and was completed by the end of the year, except for the dubbing portions.[citation needed] Subsequently, the film was postponed indefinitely due to unknown reasons, and remained unreleased. The actors and director involved moved on to participate with other projects. However, after the success of lead actor, Arun Vijay's Malai Malai, the producers decided to use his new-found publicity to launch their own film. Arun Vijay, worried that the move could hamper his new-found image at the box office, lodged a complaint with the Nadigar Sangam, alleging that the producers of Thunichal were attempting to release the film without his voice.[citation needed] Soon after, he retracted his statements and refuted that the film would not damage his reputation.[citation needed]
Soundtrack
[edit]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.[4]
