The film began production in March 2016 following a launch event held at a hotel in Chennai, with an expected release date set of mid-2016.[2] Vijay Vasanth and Riyaz Khan were revealed to be in the cast, while actors Swaminathan and Mayilswamy, along with a host of comedy actors from Vijay TV were selected for roles.[3] The film has a similar title to the 1987 film of the same name.[4]
In late 2016, actress Leesha was selected to play the titular role and worked on the film simultaneously alongside six other films, even before her first release.[5][6] Leesha was later replaced by Chandini Tamilarasan.[7]
The film was shot in Ooty and by October 2016, the film was reported to be "eighty percent" finished.[8] The shoot continued in June 2018, with production halted after Vijay Vasanth broke his leg.[9] The film proved to be the actor's final film before he moved into full-time politics.
Several years after the completion of the film, it had a limited theatrical release across Tamil Nadu on 5 August 2022.[10] A critic from Thanthi TV gave the film a negative review, criticising the screenplay.[11]
