The film was produced by Siddharth under Etaki Entertainment; starring himself, Avinash Raghudevan and Sananth in the lead as titular roles. The film follows three characters – Jil, Jung, and Juk – who are assigned by a drug lord to transport drugs and face struggles during their journey.

Production

Jil Jung Juk marked the debut directorial venture of Deeraj Vaidy. During his career as a software engineer, he became interested in filmmaking and had made two short films before approaching Siddharth in late 2014. He made a pilot film of Jil Jung Juk, which impressed Siddharth, who asked him to conceptualise the script as a feature film. When he read the final draft of the script in January 2015, Siddharth was impressed.

The film's title Jil Jung Juk was derived from dialogue spoken by Vadivelu in Kaadhalan (1994). Deeraj Vaidy co-wrote the script with Mohan Ramakrishnan, his friend. He described the film as "an offbeat film that did not need a conventional hero". The film's technical crew consisted of relative newcomers: except for composer Vishal Chandrashekhar, debutant Shreyaas Krishna handled the cinematography, whilst Kurtz Schneider was the editor.

Siddharth starred as Nanjil Sivaji (Jil). Deeraj chose him as the protagonist because he wanted someone who never hesitates to experiment. As the film is set in a fictional world, Siddharth wore blue hair in the film, which was considered to be an "unusual look" for a man. Avinash Raghudevan and Sananth were cast in the other leading roles as Jambulingam (Jung) and Jaguar Jagan (Juk), respectively.

Filming of Jil Jung Juk began in late May 2015, with portions of the film shot in Tiruvallur, Chennai, and Kanchipuram. The interior scenes were shot on sets in Chennai. The team completed the shooting in 38 days. The film's post-production began in September 2015, and the team first promoted the film to the media on 9 September.
