Development
In late December 2021, Sivakarthikeyan, who used to work with director Rajkumar Periyasamy in private Tamil channels and collaborated for many projects and shows, was reported to join hands with the latter for his directorial venture after his debut film Rangoon (2017). Production was reportedly set to begin after the actor completes his project with director Madonne Ashwin, which became Maaveeran (2023).[1] Raaj Kamal Films International, headed by Kamal Haasan and R. Mahendran, and Sony Pictures Films India, headed by Vivek Krishnani, publicly announced the project on 15 January 2022, through their respective social media accounts. Tentatively titled #SK21, either Harris Jayaraj, Anirudh Ravichander or G. V. Prakash Kumar were reported to be in consideration to score the music.[2][3] A muhurat puja was held on 5 May at the headquarters of Raaj Kamal Films International in Chennai with the presence of the film's cast and crew. The presence of Prakash Kumar, production designer Rajeevan, cinematographer CH Sai, editor R. Kalaivanan and action director Stefan Rrichter, revealed their inclusion to the technical crew.[4][5]

Which revealed that Sivakarthikeyan would play the role of a father, and Pallavi would play the role of a mother in the film.[10]

Principal photography began with the first schedule on 5 May 2023 in Kashmir.[11] However, the shooting was halted a few days later, due to an ongoing event there.[12] Filming then resumed by 22 May.[13] The schedule concluded by 1 September, with a working day of 75 days.[14] The second schedule began in Chennai on 21 October.[15] On 9 November, the filming continued in Pondicherry.[16] Shooting resumed in Puducherry by late November. By then, 80–percent of filming was reportedly completed.[9]
