After producing in 1956, there was a misunderstanding between and who were good friends from the very beginning. Devar produced some films without MGR. However, both united in 1961 and Devar produced with MGR. Kongunattu Thangam is the last of the series Devar produced without MGR.

It would appear that the hero and heroine would not have achieved their goal without the help of the horse and the dog. Music was composed by .
