Production
The film had earlier developed under the title Idiot, before the team opted for Azhagiya Asura.[2][3] Yogi, grandson of veteran actor Thengai Srinivasan, and Regina Cassandra, who earlier appeared as Laila's sister in Kanda Naal Mudhal (2005) made their debuts as lead actors with this film. Regina worked on the film alongside her commitments as a student at Lady Andal school.
Production began for the film in May 2006. A scheduled shoot in Thailand was delayed because Regina and her mother had passport issues, before later being cancelled as a result of the 2006 Thai coup d'état.[4]

Soundtrack was composed by debutant Brahma.[5]
- "Dum Dum Taka" — Malathi, Ranjith
- "Pondy Bazaar" — Tippu
- "Eppadi Eppadi" — Harish Raghavendra

Release
A reviewer from Indiaglitz.com noted the film was "entertaining all the way" and that "director Nagu deserves to be commended for coming up with a clean entertainer".[6]
Despite its low-key release at the time, the film has belatedly been recognised as the debut of pan-Indian actress Regina Cassandra.[7][8][9][10][11]
