Production
editMeera Jasmine, who began reappearing in films by late-2012 after a brief break,[3] plays the lead role in the film.[4] Shajiyem had the actress in mind when he was developing the character,[5] saying: "When she heard the story, she readily agreed to take the role and we eagerly awaited her available dates."[6] Badri, who was one of the heroes in Mamas' Cinema Company (2012), plays the male lead.[4]
The film is set in the city of Kochi, and was filmed in Kochi, Pollachi and Palakkad.[6] Shooting ended in late May 2013.[2]
