Interesting facts

Idhu Namma Aalu is a 2016 Indian Tamil-language romantic comedy film written, co-produced and directed by Pandiraj. The film stars Silambarasan, Nayantara and Andrea Jeremiah, while Soori and Jayaprakash portray supporting roles. This film was produced by T. Rajender and music was composed by Kuralarasan. In the film, Shiva is an IT professional in Chennai. His father arranges a meeting with Myla. Though skeptical about arranged marriages, Shiva is instantly smitten by Myla's beauty and direct nature.

Production

The film was in development as early as 2013. In an interview with IndiaGlitz, Pandiraj said that, aware that he and Silambarasan had different working styles, he told the actor that the film had to be completed within four months and Silambarasan was receptive of the idea.

Silambarasan began filming his portions from October 2013 alongside Soori in Urapakkam, and worked on the film during the day before joining the team of Achcham Enbadhu Madamaiyada (2016) during the night time in the period. The first schedule was completed without a lead actress, and the second schedule was briefly delayed as Pandiraj weighed up his options on his casting decision.

In August 2014, Andrea Jeremiah was cast. The project first ran into production troubles during July 2014, when Silambarasan had changed his hairstyle in-between schedule breaks, leaving Pandiraj unhappy. Silambarasan subsequently disclosed to the media that Idhu Namma Aalu was his production and that others should not question his involvement in the project. Despite a brief tussle, the final schedule of the talkie portion began in August 2014.

In January 2015, Pandiraj tweeted about his annoyance at Kuralarasan's delay in providing the film's music and stated that a planned teaser scheduled for the month had to be delayed. The director and music composer later exchanged tweets blaming each other for the slow progress of the film. T. Rajendar also submitted a complaint to the Nadigar Sangam during September 2015 remarking that Nayantara was refusing to take part in the shoot of a song.
