Production

By February 2011, the production company Balaji had acquired the rights to remake the Hindi film Dabangg (2010) in Tamil. Producer T. Ramesh revealed that actor Silambarasan urged him to do so and recommended Dharani as director. While the screenplay was written by Dharani, the dialogues were written by Bharathan, cinematography was handled by Gopinath and editing by V. T. Vijayan.

Richa Gangopadhyay was cast as the lead actress after Dharani was impressed with her performance in the Telugu film Mirapakay (2011). Sonu Sood reprised his role from the original as the antagonist. VTV Ganesh, after acting with Silambarasan in Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010) and Vaanam (2011) was signed to play the role played by Mahesh Manjrekar in the original. A number of actresses were considered for appearing in the film's item number.

The film was launched with a puja at AVM Studios in Chennai on 10 May 2011, and filming began on 26 June in Mysore. Nearly all of the film was shot in and around Mysore in a single shooting schedule, which was finished by mid-August. Silambarasan began a fitness regime with Sood serving as his coach. Gangopadhyay put on weight for Osthe and shot for the film simultaneously with Mayakkam Enna (2011) which she considered "hectic".
