The film will reunite Simbu and Jyothika after a gap of 12 years. Their last film together was Saravana that came out in 2006.

The core members of Ratnams crew has been retained for this project as well. While Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman will score music, Santhosh Sivan is cranking the camera. Editor Sreekar Prasad is also on board.

Ratnams previous film Kaatru Veliyidai last year released to a polarising response from the media and fans. The romantic flick set in the Kargil war backdrop was the most expensive film to be rolled out from Ratnams home production banner Madras Talkies. However, the film did not live up to its box office expectations.
