He takes his girlfriend Sowmya (Dharsha Gupta) to the bungalow that once belonged to Mayasena (Sunny Leone), a powerful queen who lived many centuries ago.

Production

edit

Mia Khalifa was offered to do the Mayasena Character but due to communication issues and "adjustments with the director" she wasn't doing the role. Then they asked Sunny Leone for the role and she ultimately accepted the lead role in the magnum opus. Production for the film began in mid-2021, with a 20-day schedule in Chennai and a further 20-day schedule in Mumbai held.[1] The shoot of the film was completed by December 2021.[2]

During the film's audio release event, Sathish's comments on the attire of his co-host Dharsha Gupta received criticism, after he had compared her outfit of that to a more conservative outfit worn by Sunny Leone. Sathish later tried to imply that Gupta had asked him to make a comment, which the actress denied, prompting Sathish to take back his second statement.[3]
