In July 2012, actor Prasanna tweeted that Rajan Madhav had finished penning his next script and that he will be a part of the cast.

Prasanna in September told that Rajan Madhav had been working on the script for eight months and that it was planned to start in December. Saiarun was later signed as the editor, replacing Praveen and Srikanth.

The shooting was started in March 2013. Along with Prasanna, Narain was supposed to play the lead roles, but they both were replaced with Ajmal Ameer and Ashok, while Gayathrie was reported to play the female lead. Ajmal Ameer stated that he played a rockstar in the film and that he was paired with Mumbai-based Priya Banerjee. In August 2013, a song, penned by Madhan Karky, was to be shot.Vidharth said that he played the role of a rowdy gang leader. Gayathrie in October 2013 stated that every character in the film comes in shades of grey and that seventy per cent of the film had been completed.
