Production

The film marked the directorial and acting debut of GRS, an erstwhile assistant to Bharathiraja. He revealed that the film was based on practices that he had encountered in South Tamil Nadu such as 'Seimurai' – the act of gifting money during an occasion in advance so that the event is organised in a big scale.

GRS had shown the script to Bharathiraja, who helped him convince Radhika Sarathkumar to join the project. Once she accepted to do the film, other known actor such as Viji Chandrasekhar and Saravanan followed. The film began its shoot in late 2019 in Theni.
