→Trivia
- The film's title was inspired by a real-life case of memory theft in the tech industry, which the director read about.
- Lead actor Adhi Kesavan also served as the director, making it his first major dual-role project in a thriller.
- Key scenes were shot in a single, long-abandoned software park to capture a genuine atmosphere of isolation and loss.
- The medical condition depicted in the film is based on a rare, real neurological disorder affecting procedural memory.
- The score uses a custom-made electronic instrument to create sounds that mimic glitching computer code and fragmented memories.
- A minor character is a subtle homage to a famous Tamil cinema detective from the 1990s, recognizable by a specific mannerism.
- The production deliberately avoided using green screens, opting for practical effects to make the protagonist's disorientation feel more tangible.
