Production
Mammootty approached Kamal to write dialogues for the film though Kamal initially was uninterested to pen dialogues as "Thampy's idea of filmmaking was not something that I shared" though he agreed as he knew Thampy from his days as assistant director. Thampy wanted to cast Lalu Alex as antagonist however on the insistence of an person called as Kora Chettan in industry circles, he decided to cast Siddique in that role. After Thampy came to know Siddique who was then a college student went to abroad, he "lost interest in Siddique" and roped Lalu Alex. Thampy who was surprised to see Siddique turning up at the sets gave him a small role in the film not to disappoint him.[4]
