 The film did not feature any dance numbers, comedy or melodramatic scenes, which were "usual ingredients" of films at that time, but it introduced viewers to then unknown techniques of film presentation, in which it was not merely used for "story-telling".It was an inevitable development for Malayalam cinema, as the film focused mainly on cinema rather than its story.The film also introduced film-goers to a new cinematic art through the impulses generated by the film, which in turn were more important than the film itself.
