Production

In May 2020, director B. Unnikrishnan shared a picture of him having a meeting with screenwriter Udaykrishna, cinematographer Vijay Ulaganath, editor Shameer Muhammed and some technical crew for revealing that they are in the pre-production work of a film amid the COVID-19 lockdown in India. In October, it was revealed that Mohanlal would play the leading role in the film which has a rustic story where he plays the role of a villager.

Unnikrishnan said that ₹30 lakh will be allotted for COVID-19 precautions, and the film would have a larger than usual crew by COVID-19 pandemic standards, which would take 60 days to shoot. Cast and crew agreed to work with a reduced remuneration considering the COVID-19 crisis. Unnikrishnan said that, in a normal scenario the film would have cost ₹30 crore. Title of the film was announced in November 2020.

Aaraattu was Unnikrishnan's first film to feature as many as 45 characters. Mohanlal plays Neyyattinkara Gopan, whom Unnikrishnan describes as a "loud character from the get-go". Mohanlal was confirmed in the film in October 2020. In the same month, Shraddha Srinath was confirmed in the female lead role, who plays an I.A.S officer serving as Revenue Division Officer. Shraddha was acting in a Malayalam film after a break of five years.

The crew planned to shoot the film in Palakkad and Hyderabad. Vijay Ulaganath was the cinematographer. The filming was done following the COVID-19 protocols and safety measures. The film began principal photography on 23 November 2020 in Palakkad district. Shraddha Srinath joined the set on the following day. Varikkasseri Mana served as a location for the film. Some significant portions were shot at Ottapalam and Ooty.
