Cast

Production

In early 2016, director Pandiraj and G. V. Prakash Kumar discussed the idea of making a sequel to the director's successful comedy film, Kedi Billa Killadi Ranga (2013). The pair then agreed in principle to make the film, with Rajkiran and Sathyaraj considered for supporting roles, before the plan was put on hold.[2][3] Subsequently Pandiraj and Prakash Kumar chose to start another project, where Pandiraj would work as the dialogue writer in his assistant Vallikanth's script. The film began production in early 2017 and developed quietly, before a press release in March 2017 revealed that the film was titled Semma and had completed its shoot. Calling the film a "full length comedy", Pandiraj revealed that the film was based on a real life incident which happened at the wedding of director Vallikanth's friend. Actress Arthana Binu and actor Jana were introduced to the Tamil film industry with the project, while a bevy of supporting actors including Yogi Babu, Kovai Sarala and Sujatha Sivakumar were stated to have worked on the film during schedules held in Chennai and Trichy.[4][5][6]
