Director Murali Krishna launched Arvind Vinod, a VJ on Sun Music, as the lead actor in the film. Likewise, model Deepa Chari from Mumbai was cast as the heroine for her first Tamil venture.[2]

Release

A reviewer from Rediff.com stated it was "movies like C J Reddy Enterprises' Balam, directed by Muralikrishna, make you realise how a film with an experienced cast can go haywire, thanks to a few silly elements that simply take away the joy of story-telling". The reviewer added "what's even more puzzling is what veteran actors like Rahman and Suhasini are doing in a film where there's no scope to flex even a little finger, let alone acting muscles".[3] The film had a low key opening at the Tamil box office and did not perform well commercially.[4]
