Production

In 2017, short filmmaker Shree Karthick signed up an untitled film which would mark his directorial debut with S. R. Prabhu's Dream Warrior Pictures. Karthik initially pitched a budget of ₹4–5 crore, however, Prabhu felt that the film deserved a bigger scale and asked Karthik to make it as a Tamil–Telugu bilingual as he knew both the languages. Karthick stated that the film echoed his relationship with his mother.

The film's Telugu title was unveiled as Oke Oka Jeevitham in June 2021. The simultaneously shot Tamil version was titled as Kanam in September of that year. The film marks Amala Akkineni's return to Tamil cinema after 31 years and to Telugu cinema after 8 years, and also marks Sharwanand's comeback to Tamil cinema after JK Enum Nanbanin Vaazhkai.

In August 2019, Sharwanand and Ritu Varma were paired opposite each other while Nassar was cast in a crucial role. In November 2019, veteran actress Amala Akkineni was signed to play the protagonist's mother. Tharun Bhascker was then signed to write the Telugu dialogues, while Jakes Bejoy was signed to compose the film's music. The cinematography was to be handled by Sujith Sarang and the editing was assigned to Sreejith Sarang.

Filming took place in Hyderabad and Chennai. The filming was halted in March 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The shoot resumed after 8 months with the final schedule taking place in Chennai and wrapped up in November 2020.
