ProductionDubai-based Sneha (known at the time as Suhasini),[5] aged nineteen,[6] was spotted by Fazil who recommended her to Anil–Babu who were looking for an actress to play the role of an aspiring dancer.[7][8] She was renamed Manasi since there was already an actress named Suhasini.[9] Sneha received offers to work in Tamil and Telugu-language films before she had finished the shoot of this film.[10] SoundtrackThe music was composed by Salil Chowdhury's children Sanjoy and Antara.[11][12] Yusufali Kechery worked as the lyricist for this film.[11]
ReceptionA critic from indiainfo.com rated the film 3⁄5 and wrote that "Kunchacko Boban, who has so far been used by directors to do desi rap, gets a chance to perform classical dance in the film. And does a fine job too though its unlikely that the audience will take a liking to it. His sensitive portrayal of a man caught between his love for dance and music and a girl who dotes on him is excellent. Sujitha, the child artiste who was discovered by Fazil in Poovinu Puthiya Poonthennal, gives a very fine performance. This film has some very good music by Sanjay-Antra, the son-daughter duo of Salil Chowdury and the choreography by Kala is impressive. Debutant Manasi manages an average performance".[13] A critic from keralatalkies.com wrote that "With riveting performances, Ingane Oru Nilapakshi holds forth promise".[14] References
