Trivia

  • A key romantic song was shot in a single day at a heritage bungalow in Chennai to maintain a tight production schedule.
  • The movie includes a cameo by a popular Tamil television host, which was kept as a surprise for audiences.
  • Despite being an action-comedy, the film uses minimal CGI, relying more on practical stunts and choreography.
