Initially helmed by Bala. However the production house released a press statement stating that they would go for a complete re-shoot as they were not satisfied with the final cut provided by Bala. It was relaunched with a completely new cast and crew while retaining Dhruv. This became the first such incident in Tamil cinema that the producer of the film refuses to release the film due to unsatisfactory final cut despite the completion of the film.
The shooting was briefly stalled due to a strike of the Tamil Film Producers Council, but was resumed in April after the strike ended.
