Trivia
- The film's title 'Psycho' was originally a working title, but director Mysskin decided to keep it as the final name.
- Actor Udhayanidhi Stalin, who plays the blind protagonist, wore special contact lenses that limited his vision to 20% during filming.
- The film's antagonist, played by Nithya Menen, is a rare female psychopath in mainstream Tamil cinema.
- Director Mysskin drew inspiration from the Buddhist story of Angulimala, but set it in a modern, rainy urban landscape.
- The movie features a cameo by director Mysskin himself as a police officer in the investigation scenes.
- Much of the film was shot during night schedules and in heavy rain to create a gloomy, atmospheric mood.
- The musical score uses a theremin, an electronic instrument, to create the eerie theme for the psychopathic character.
