Shahjahan and starring Tarun, Akash, Rohit, Priyamani, Sunil and Ankita.[1] The film is a remake of the director's own film Punnagai Desam, which also starred Tarun.

Cast
Soundtrack
Music by S. A. Rajkumar. Two songs were reused from the original ("Engal Muchukulle" was reused as "Maa Tholi Patane", "Thottu Vidum Thoorathil" was reused as "Swachamaina").
Reception
A critic from Rediff.com wrote that "Go for Nava Vasantam, it is a paisa-vasool (transl. bang for your buck) flick".[2] A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote that "This remake of Punnagai Desam in Tamil, also starring Tarun, is unlikely to strike a chord with you despite a good storyline, thanks to a sloppy screenplay".[3]
