Cast
Production
Soon after the release of director H. Vinoth's second film Theeran Adhigaram Ondru (2017), he approached actor Ajith Kumar for a big budget film featuring a protagonist with negative shades to his character. However, the project was rejected by Ajith and asked the director to instead work on remaking the Hindi film Pink (2016) as Nerkonda Paarvai (2019) in Tamil.[7] During the making of Nerkonda Paarvai, producer Boney Kapoor announced that he would collaborate again with actor Ajith Kumar and director H. Vinoth for another Tamil film. Kapoor suggested that the film would be a thriller that uses the actor's passion for speed.[8][9] In October 2019, the film was launched and a ceremony was held to mark the beginning of the production. The makers also announced the title of the film as Valimai.[10]
Principal photography began on 13 December 2019 at Hyderabad.[11]
Music
The soundtrack and background score will be composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja.[12]
Marketing and Release
The movie was scheduled to be released by the third week of November 2020 coinciding with Diwali. However, the Shooting of the movie has been suspended due to the Coronavirus disease 2019 crisis.[13]
