Trivia
- The film's concept of a soul entering a teddy bear was partly inspired by classic Tamil fantasy films like 'Enthiran' (Robot) and Hollywood's 'Ted'.
- Arya, who plays Shiva, had to undergo special training to perform the parkour and action sequences seen in the train fight scene.
- The movie was shot in Azerbaijan for 15 days to film the crucial kidnapping and rescue portions, marking a rare overseas shoot for a Tamil fantasy thriller.
- Director Shakti Soundar Rajan used a mix of practical teddy bear props and CGI to bring the animated teddy character to life on screen.
- The film's soundtrack by D. Imman includes a theme that uses electronic sounds to represent the teddy bear's movements and emotions.
- Despite its fantasy elements, the medical kidnapping plot was researched to reflect real-world organ trafficking concerns.
- The movie's climax involved complex visual effects to show the soul's transition between the teddy bear and the human body.
