Cast
Production
Sevagan marks the directorial debut of Arjun. As his acting career was floundering and stopped receiving offers from directors, Arjun himself decided to direct, produce and star in a film which became Sevagan.
Soundtrack
The music was composed by Maragadha Mani, with lyrics written by Vairamuthu.
Release and reception
Sevagan was released on 5 June 1992. RSP of The Indian Express gave the film a mixed review, citing "the narration lacks depth [...] Kushboo has been wasted. Captain Raju fails to impress only the first song bears Maragadha Mani's stamp" and praised the stunt sequences. The film was a success, and revitalised Arjun's career.
