Plot synopsis

Guna unites his brother and his lover after overcoming a number of problems. But when he falls in love with a girl who does not reciprocate his feelings, his brother's wife comes to his aid.

Cast

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

Soundtrack was composed by debutant Brahma.[5]

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] A reviewer from ChennaiOnline.com wrote "Azhagiya Asura is a wholesome, engaging entertainer, a commendable effort from first-timers producer Ravi Jeyram and director Nagu".[7]

Despite its low-key release at the time, the film has belatedly been recognised as the lead debut of South-Indian actress Regina Cassandra.[8][9][10][11][12][13]
