Production

After reading the novel Derailed by James Siegel, Gautham Vasudev Menon decided to make a film loosely inspired by it rather than adapting the novel verbatim. The film was previously titled Vilai Uyirendraalum (Even If the Price Is Life Itself) and Silandhi (Spider), but later titled Pachaikili Muthucharam, after a song from Ulagam Sutrum Valiban (1973).

For the second lead female role several actresses were considered with Tabu, Kamalinee Mukherjee and Shobana as the frontrunners. Shobana was chosen to play the role whom Menon described as the "finest actor in the country". However, she was replaced by Andrea Jeremiah, who previously collaborated with Menon in Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu (2006) as a playback singer. The lead role was initially offered to Kamal Haasan, who declined.
