Production
Mysskin launched the production of the film during July 2015, and announced that he would also write the script for the film and play the antagonist. He stated that he was inspired to write the script based on a real life barber he knew, who would only tell lies.[2][3] The film's director was Mysskin's brother, G. R. Adithya, who had previously apprenticed under filmmakers such as R. Parthiepan and Mysskin himself. Adithya had initially been contracted to make a film for a different production studio but after the project got shelved, he convinced Mysskin to give him an opportunity to direct the project. Another director, Ram, was signed on to play the lead role of the barber, with Adithya keen on selecting someone with an "innocent" face. Ram initially refused the offer, as he felt that the film would undo his public image of being a serious film-maker, but later accepted to feature in the project.[4][5] Poorna was selected after six heroines, including Priyamani, had refused the opportunity to be a part of the film.[6][7] The actress revealed that she would play a hearing-impaired pregnant lady in the film, and prior to the start of shoot, she took part in a ten-day workshop where she learnt to speak the Sivagangai slang and was taught how to portray the character by Adithya. Adithya chose to take inspiration for the role from the personality and body language of his and Mysskin's own mother.[8][9] Ashvatt, who previously appeared in Mysskin's Pisaasu and Thupparivaalan, was signed on to play a key role in the film, while television anchor Swathishta Krishnan also joined the cast.[10][11] The soundtrack and teaser of the film was released on 15 October 2016, and then re-released in January 2018, with a bonus song and instrumental tracks added.[12] Despite being completed in late 2016, the film was delayed and eventually the makers of the film chose to promote Mysskin's name over Adithya's name in the promotional posters to make use of his brand name post the success of Thupparivaalan.[13]
