Production

LKG was officially announced in May 2018. It is the directorial debut of K. R. Prabhu, who previously worked as an associate of Prabhu Deva. K. R. Prabhu is the son of producer K. Rajan, and had previously worked as an actor in films including Doubles (2000) and Ninaikkatha Naalillai (2001). LKG was produced by Ishari K. Ganesh of Vels Film International.

Priya Anand accepted the female lead role as she felt her character was well-written and exciting. Ramarajan was originally offered to portray the antagonist, but declined due to the character's introduction only mid-way through the film; J. K. Rithesh was instead chosen, and LKG became his final film as actor before his death in April 2019. Rithesh said he accepted the role because of his friendship with Ganesh.
