Production
About the idea of making the film, Sreenivasan says: "The thought of the film came to us when we started thinking about what should be happening to a superstar like Saroj Kumar at this point of time. He is getting old and the most challenging aspect about stardom is that once you have got it, the next question is how long it will last. Some people can accept the changes in life in a mature way but for most others, it is never easy. This superstar is wary of new thoughts and new experiments because he knows he won't fit into the changing scheme of things. It is easy to be a hero in films as even a weak person can fight with any number of goons and get applauses from viewers. But Dr Saroj Kumar forces the directors to cater to his thoughts. All this makes the character very exciting." "As the characters are already known to the viewers, the expectations could be huge. The film was mainly shot in Chennai and Kochi.
