The film was started with a pooja launch at the producer and directors office where only his close associates were present. Young actor Sri of Vazhakku Enn 18/9 fame was roped in to do the lead.
The shooting happened in and around Chennai. Most of the shooting was happening at night because the story is set against the backdrop of darkness.
In June 2013, a trailer of Onaiyum Aatukuttiyum was released on YouTube, Though Ilaiyaraaja was signed as the composer, the trailer had Austrian composer Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 5.

Mysskin released the background score for free to download in his production website as a tribute to Ilaiyaraaja.
