Produced by EAP circuit cinemas, the film had music scored by Ravihans Wetakepotha while songs were composed by Ravihans Wetakepotha, Rookantha Gunathilake and Dilan Lamb. It was released in January 2011 and was a very big commercial hit in Sri Lankan Film History in that year. But it received critical acclaim for background score and the use of music and sound design while getting lukewarm reviews from Critics for the overall film direction. This is the 1150th film in Sri Lanka cinema. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
