Production
Producer Issaki Sundar saw Dushyanth, the son of Ramkumar Ganesan and grandson of Sivaji Ganesan, at the Sivaji Productions office and offered him the opportunity to make his acting debut. He initially rejected the offer, but ultimately agreed after consulting with his uncle Prabhu and cousin Vikram Prabhu.[1] Dushyanth was also credited as Junior Sivaji during the production of the film. The film was named Success, after the first on screen dialogue of Sivaji from the film Parasakthi (1952).[2][3]

Reception
The reviewer from Sify wrote, "Dushyanth, the new hero has no mannerisms or looks of his grandfather, late legendary Sivaji Ganesan. However this young man has tried his best to look convincing in his debut film that looks more like a mega serial".[4] Shobha Warrier of Rediff.com wrote "Director Suresh Prasanna is directionless and clueless from the beginning. It seems like the only direction he had is to make a Sivaji Ganesan film and make Dushyant another Sivaji".[5] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online felt that Dushyanth must "work on his expressions in the more intense scenes", Nandana was underutilised and Karunas was "plainly irritating" with his "loud monotone and supposedly comic antics".[6]
