Production
Vishal decided to fund and act in a venture directed by newcomer P. S. Mithran in August 2016, and subsequently signed on actress Samantha to portray the leading female role in the film.[3][4][5] The team then signed Arya to play the antagonist in October 2016, with the actor accepting terms without hearing the film's entire script.[6] Subsequently, music composer Yuvan Shankar Raja, cinemataographer George C. Williams and editor Ruben were added to the project. Designers NJ Sathya and Neeraja Kona also were revealed to be in charge of the costumes of the lead actors for the film.[7]
The film began production following a launch event in October 2016, with Vishal and Samantha shooting scenes alongside actors Robo Shankar and Delhi Ganesh for the first schedule.[8] Arya later opted out of the film citing that he was not ready to play an antagonist in Tamil cinema,and subsequently the team roped in Arjun.[9][10][11][12][13]
