In May 2013, director K. V. Anand was announced to be collaborating with actor Dhanush for his next film. AGS Entertainment, which produced Anand's previous directorial Maattrraan (2012) was confirmed to be producing this too. Though it was rumoured to be titled as Thaara Thappatta Ready, based on words that Anand used on social media, Anand clarified that he meant a song from that film and the film was yet to be titled.

It was revealed that the story comprises multiple period set-ups. In an interaction with trade analyst Sreedhar Pillai, Anand described the film as a romantic thriller unlike his previous films which were based on issues such as smuggling or politics. The technical crew consisted of cinematographer Om Prakash, editor Anthony, art director D. R. K. Kiran, action choreographer Kanal Kannan and writer duo Subha. As with most K. V.

Initially, K. V. Anand, narrated the story to Vijay and Asin but they could not commit the project, due to date issues, and Vijay suggested Dhanush's name. Dhanush would sport four different looks, with one of his hairstyles paying homage to Kamal Haasan's look in Tik Tik Tik (1981).

In August 2013, Amyra Dastur, who made her film debut in Issaq (2013) was announced as the lead actress, making her Tamil debut. Initially, Alia Bhatt was considered for the female lead role but her unavailability due to commitments in Hindi films, led the team to choose Dastur instead.

For the role of the antagonist, Anand initially thought of Arvind Swamy and R. Madhavan but Swamy was committed to Thani Oruvan (2015) and Madhavan was considered too young. Hence, Anand chose Karthik, whom he had been a longtime fan of, and hoped the film would mark a successful comeback for the actor who had been largely inactive in Tamil films for the past few years.
