For Nayanthara, this is her second movie with Atlee. She did RajaRani with him in the past, and with Vijay too. She last worked with the actor in Villu almost 10 years ago. The film was directed by Prabhudheva. Before Villu, Nayanthara had shot for a song with Vijay in Sivakasi, which released in 2005.
