→Trivia
- The film's working title was 'Shadow Self' before being changed to 'Restart Restart'.
- Director Amarnaath reportedly studied real-life cases of grief-induced hallucinations for the script.
- The movie was shot primarily in the less-filmed industrial areas of Coimbatore for a gritty look.
- The sound design uses binaural audio techniques to make the friend's voice feel like it's inside the protagonist's head.
- A single, continuous take lasting over 7 minutes was used for a key confrontation scene between the two personas.
- The film's promotional campaign used interactive social media filters that mirrored the protagonist's fractured reality.
- It is one of the few Tamil thrillers from 2025 to have a runtime under two hours, focusing on a tight narrative.
