Gavemic U Ary was the film's cinematographer, making his debut in Tamil cinema, and Vivek Harshan was the film's editor.Santhosh Narayanan composed the songs and background score. The film was produced under Kathiresan's production banner, Group company. It also won two National Film Awards for Best Supporting Actor (Bobby Simha) and Best Editing (Vivek Harshan).
The plot revolves around Karthik (Siddharth), an assistant director who is thrown out of a reality new filmmakers show, as his short film was disappointing. Heartbroken, Karthik has the support of one of the judges (Aadukalam Naren) who believes he has the stuff to be a great director and is willing to back him if he does a script on a real life gangster. Karthik travels to Madurai looking to make a film based on the life and times of the notorious gangster Assault Sethu (Bobby Simha). The rest of the plot deals with how Karthik makes his film with the help of his friend Oorani (Karunakaran).
