Production
Arvind Swamy and director Selva discussed collaborations in early 2014 and during May 2014, Selva announced that the pair would work on a film titled Vanangamudi, where Arvind Swamy would portray a police officer.[1] Despite planning an initial start date of July 2014, the film was delayed as Arvind Swamy prioritised other commitments.[2][3] In early 2017, Arvind Swamy confirmed that the pair would begin work on the film soon, with Ritika Singh selected to play the lead actress. She says that, she is playing a lively and independent role in this movie.[4] Magicbox Films agreed to produce the film, while D. Imman was signed as the film's music composer.[5][6][7] For two further female lead roles of a journalist and a police officer, the team signed Chandini Tamilarasan and Nandita Swetha.[8][9] Daniel Balaji was also briefly attached to the project but opted out citing date issues with his work for Ippadai Vellum (2017). Balaji was subsequently replaced by Harish Uthaman.[10][11]
The film began production on 15 January 2017 following a launch event.[12] The first schedule began in Nungambakkam, with further schedules planned in Kodaikanal and Tuticorin.[13][14]
