Production

The film began production in 2009. Kathir, who played a lorry driver in Salangai Durai's earlier film Kathavarayan (2008), was cast in this film as a water tank lorry driver. He practised lorry driving for the film. This was Malayalam actress Honey Rose's second Tamil film after Mudhal Kanave (2007), but the delay of the film meant that this was her fourth Tamil film after Singam Puli (2011). The climax was shot in Chennai.^[1]

Soundtrack

The music was composed by Malayalam composer Alex Paul in his Tamil debut.^[2]
