The film has been directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and produced by Raaj Kamal Films International. Earlier in an interview, Lokesh revealed that he got an opportunity to work as Kamal Haasan's make-up artist for 32 days on the film's sets when he was asked the best memory he took home from the sets of Vikram as Kamal Haasan's fan.
Speaking to the YouTube channel Galatta Plus, the director said, “I always wondered why he was interested in doing his own make-up. He told me about the history behind it. So, we had to do blood make-up for him for the movie. I asked him if I could do it on him. He agreed, and I spent half an hour doing the make-up."
The filmmaker continued, "He liked my work, and asked who should take it forward from hereon. I told him I wanted to do it for him if he’s ok with it. He said he’s ok if I am ok. That’s how I became the first director to do make-up on Kamal Haasan. I was his make-up artist for 32 days."
