The film marks the second outing of director Bakkiyaraj Kannan, who made his directorial debut with Sivakarthikeyan starrer Remo and totally went off the radar post the film’s release. Bankrolled by SR Prabhu under the banner Dream Warrior Pictures, the film also stars Yogi Babu and will have music by Vivek - Mervin. Sathyan Sooryan did its cinematography while editing was by Ruben.
Karthi's last release was Thambi with Jyothika directed by Jeethu Joseph, which was well appreciated by the audience. He is currently a part of Mani Ratnam's magnum opus Ponniyin Selvan being shot in Hyderabad.
Karthi also has a project with PS Mithran of Irumbu Thirai fame. Reports suggest that Karthi will be seen in a dual avatar in the film with a long hair look which he is currently sporting for Ponniyin Selvan. While the rest of the cast and crew are yet to be finalised, the film will be bankrolled by Lakshman under the banner Prince Pictures who already produced Karthi starrer Dev. The actor also has a film with director Muthaiah.
