Production

The film is directed by Sundarra Elangovan, a former assistant of Bala. Arundhati plays an encounter specialist named Sathyapriya while debutant Ramkumar plays a civil engineer who gets involved in Sathyapriya's case. To prepare for her role, Arundhati watched films from the same genre including Blue Steel, The Bone Collector and Mardaani.[2] The film was titled as Arthanari because both the male and female characters have equal importance. Nassar plays a supporting role while Rajendran plays the antagonist.[3]
