Production

In January 2017, the film project was announced by veteran theater actor Michael Muthu as his maiden directorial full-fledged feature film venture, and he revealed that it would be a bilingual film titled The Way Things Are in English and Theeviram in Tamil. Muthu had previously made an attempt to make his directorial debut in 2002, but the project, which was titled The Girl, failed to materialize, and the project was subsequently shelved.

Muthu revealed that the story he narrated was specifically meant to be for a theatrical play, but he later changed his mind to convert his script into a full-length feature film after realizing that the theme around the three stories had vast potential to be presented in a more meaningful way through film mode. Initially, Muthu proposed plans to shoot the film entirely as an English-language film.
