The film began production under the title Gandhi Kanakku.[3] The name was later changed to Mahaan Kanakku after a case was filed against the name.[4] Editor Suresh Urs forayed into acting through this film.[5]
Behindwoods gave this film two out of five stars stating that "While movies like Ethan briefly touched upon the banking problem, Mahaan Kanakku goes for the throat and gets it".[6] A critic from Filmibeat wrote that "Although there are minor flaws, they need not be overstated as this film should be taken as a valid awareness effort".[7] A critic from Maalai Malar wrote that "Borrowing lakhs of lakhs from beggars is an interesting activity. It is a trademark to hold revenge films with a smile on the face of a hurt heart. For the eyes bored of love stories, the social problem was portrayed in a compelling screen story".[8]
