Production

In September 2008, it was reported that Suriya had signed a film titled Mugamoodi (Mask), which would be directed by Mysskin and produced by UTV Motion Pictures. It was reported that A. R. Rahman would compose the music for the film. The film was reported to be made on a budget of ₹35 crore, as it involved extensive computer graphics and visual effects. Suriya intended to learn martial arts for the film.

The film was produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Siddharth Roy Kapur of UTV Motion Pictures. Mugamoodi was claimed to be the first superhero film in Tamil cinema.

Pre-production of the film began in late 2008. Mysskin started scripting the film after completing Nandalala (2010). In July 2011, it was reported that the makers began location scouting for the film. The shooting of the film was reported to start in late November 2011. Reports further claimed that Jiiva and Narain would undergo special training in martial arts with experts from the Shaolin Temple in China.

Mysskin revealed that the film will be made in his style, with tout-thrilling moments. "Taking into consideration that I am making an Indian film, I can’t showcase something that is impossible. I want my audience to accept my films and not make a joke of it. This is real cinema and I have shown what any superhero can exhibit in his zone," he added.

K, who had scored for Mysskin's Yuddham Sei (2010), was selected as the film composer over two other music directors, while Madhan Karky would pen the lyrics, associating for the first time with Mysskin. Action sequences were choreographed by Tony Leung, who has worked with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan action choreographers from Hong Kong.
