The film was originally announced with Vijay Sethupathi starring, and he received criticism. Muralitharan released a statement requesting the actor to drop out, citing he did not want Sethupathi to "face any kind of trouble". Critics had lamented Muralitharan's neutral stance during the Sri Lankan civil war and his support for Mahinda Rajapaksa's political party after the conclusion of the war.
