Production
After the production of Naan Thaan Siva was postponed as a result of Thirrupathi Brothers' financial problems, R. Panneerselvam announced in September 2016 that he would collaborate with Vijay Sethupathi for a film.[3] Produced by A. M. Rathnam, the team approached Keerthy Suresh to play the lead role later that month, but the actress did not sign the project owing to schedule clashes.[4] Ritika Singh was initially signed on to play the lead role, but was later replaced by Lakshmi Menon before production had begun.[5] Lakshmi Menon later pulled out of the film citing an injury and was replaced by Tanya. Bobby Simha agreed to play the antagonist in the film, despite earlier opting to star only in leading roles.[6]
Following a launch event held in December 2016, the team began filming sequences in Theni during January 2017.[7] The motion poster of this film is planned to release on 13 July 2017.[8] Its reported that, due to indefinite strike announced by Film Employees Federation of South India, Karuppan team is waiting to film few portions of the movie.[9].The satellite rights of the film were bagged by Sun TV (India),[10].
