Production
In November 2015, it was reported that actor Jiiva would work with newcomer Muthukumar for a romantic comedy film titled Gemini Ganesan.[1][2] P. T. Selvakumar and Shibu Thameens were announced as the film's producers, and they cast Sathyaraj, Lissy and Rajendra Prasad amongst others in pivotal roles. Tamannaah was first choice to play the lead actress, but her unavailability meant that Lakshmi Menon replaced her. However, the failure of the producers' Puli (2015) and their collaboration with Jiiva in Pokkiri Raja, meant that they chose to drop the project.[3][4]
The film was revived with a new producer in June 2017 and Vimal was cast to play the male lead, and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar was signed on to play the female lead. The makers also chose to change the films title from Gemini Ganesan to Kadhal Mannan (transl. King of Romance), a moniker often associated with the actor Gemini Ganesan.[5][6] In January 2018, after a major portion of the shoot was completed, the team renamed the film to Kanni Raasi.[7][8]

Critical reception
The Times of India wrote "Kanni Rasi is an example of how an incoherent screenplay could test the patience of viewers despite having an unusual plot which had enough scope to entertain audiences."[11] The Indian Express wrote "With films like Kanni Raasi, you don’t even need to wait for the intermission to get your snack. You can do this even during the film, and not miss much."[12]
