Reports suggested that Parvathy Nair would feature in the film, but the actress denied the claims.^[1][2] However, during the pre-production stages, the pair were impressed by a script narrated by their common friend Giri and subsequently decided to work on making a screenplay regarding the new script. Manikandan revealed it would be a comedy film, featuring Santhanam as a police officer, and subsequently brought in music composer Ghibran, editor Rama Rao and cinematographer Gobinath to form the lead technical crew. Actress Amyra Dastur, previously seen in K. V. Anand's Anegan (2014), was selected to play the leading female role, while a bevy of supporting actors including Vettaikaran fame Salim Ghouse, Kovai Sarala and Anandaraj were also confirmed to have signed the film.^[3] The film was officially launched during October 2016.^[4]
