Production

Nadunisi Naaygal shares its title with that of a poem by Sundara Ramaswamy. Director Gautham Vasudev Menon claimed that the film was inspired by a true event from the United States, adding that a novel helped form the story of the film. Explaining the relevance of the title, Menon said it was about "desire and the dangers that lurk in the night. I'm using dogs as a metaphor to denote danger".

Ashwin Kakumanu initially auditioned for a role in Menon's Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010). Menon was close to giving him the role, but Ashwin was noticed by the assistant directors of the film who recommended him for playing the love interest of Sameera Reddy's character in Nadunisi Naaygal, which became his acting debut. Swapna Abraham was cast as Menon wanted an actress who had a youthful appearance contrary to her age.
