    • Production

    Prior to Sivaji Ganesan, actor S. S. Rajendran was offered the lead role in Kuravanji. However, due to some "friction" between him and Karunanidhi, the writer of the film, he was replaced. M. K. Alagiri pointed out that, "During the shooting of the film Kuravanji, Sivaji chose to wear a gunny sack instead of the woollen clothes to connect with reality of the character of a tribesman. Such was his commitment."
