Sonia Agarwal agreed terms to work on the film during late 2021.[3] Shijinlal had initially approached Vimala Raman to work with him on a different project, before asking her to join the shoot of Grandma.[4] The film was shot during a 30-day schedule in Kerala.[5][4]
The film was released on 27 May 2022 to limited cinema halls across Tamil Nadu, and then re-released on 8 July 2022 to a wider audience.[6] A critic from Maalai Malar gave the film a positive review, revealing that the screenplay was "racy".[7] Logesh Balachandran of The Times of India noted that Grandma was "a decent watch", adding that "the good thing about director Shijinlal's Grandma is that there is neither a flashback for the supernatural element nor a revenge tale".[8] A critic from Aanthai Reporter also praised the film.[9]
