[1] The plot follows the journey of an Indian police officer, fondly known as "Jaggubhai", who is sent to Australia on an important mission to deal with anti-social elements there.

Jagannathan, fondly known as Jaggubhai, is an upright, straightforward, and tough Indian police officer with sharp methods.

Shortly after filming began, however, due to creative differences between Rajinikanth and Ravikumar, Jaggubhai was delayed and subsequently shelved.

[4] Jacki was signed as the art director while Sarathkumar's home production company Radaan Mediaworks and Zee Motion Pictures collaborated to produce the film.

[8] A full-length, unfinished version of Jaggubhai was discovered online in December 2009, far from the film's official release date.

[9] Radhika, Sarathkumar, and Ravikumar held a press meet condemning the film's piracy, in which the former two had become emotional during the discussion.

[2][10] The film soundtrack released on 27 September 2009 and was scored by newcomer, Rafee, a Singapore based musician and former assistant to A. R.

Sarath Kumar is described as "a major disappointment, despite being given a role that would make any actor go green with envy", whilst Shriya Saran "gains brownie points by looking hot in various skimpy dresses" despite "not [being] successful in acting".

[14] Sify was relatively less critical describing the movie as "run of the mill" though citing that the "major plus point of the film is that it is only 2 hours, and the camera work of RD Rajasekhar is scintillating".

Sarath Kumar with his "macho tough look carries the film on his shoulders", while Shriya Saran as the spoiled brat is "adequate".
