The film stars Karthik, Rambha and Goundamani in the lead roles, with Manivannan, Jai Ganesh, Senthil, and Jyothi Meena in supporting roles. It revolves around a man who runs away from home to avoid a forced marriage, but unknowingly falls in love with the same woman. Ullathai Allitha is heavily based on the Tamil films Sabaash Meena (1958) and Bommalattam (1968), and the Hindi film Andaz Apna Apna (1994). The film was scored by Sirpy, photographed by U. K. Senthil Kumar and edited by B. S. Vasu, with filming taking place predominantly in the Fernhills Palace, Ooty. The film was released on 15 January 1996. It became a major commercial success and had 275 day run at theatres across Tamil Nadu. The film was remade in Telugu as Veedevadandi Babu (1997) and in Kannada as Galate Aliyandru (2000).
