Production

In 2014, director I. Ahmed and producer Udhayanidhi Stalin planned a film titled Idhayam Murali, which would star Udhayanidhi and Hansika Motwani. However, the team were unable to begin production and decided to stall the venture, instead choosing to remake Subhash Kapoor's 2013 Hindi film, Jolly LLB. Unlike the original film, which was a comedy drama, Manithan was made to be more serious and dramatic.

Production began in August 2015, with the film not yet titled. The film was revealed to be reaching completion by early December 2015, before the film's set was destroyed in Saligramam following the 2015 South India floods. The title of the film, Manithan, was announced on 14 January 2016, coinciding with the release of the film's first poster.
