Casting
During the pre-production stage, several actresses including Trisha, Nayantara and Shruti Haasan were considered to play the female lead but Hansika Motwani was eventually signed. The protagonist was revealed to be an unemployed youngster, as unofficial reports of a ticket collector and a band master were brushed aside. Arya, Sneha and Andrea Jeremiah were roped in to do cameo roles in the film.Hansika was forced to learn Tamil, for the director wanted her to speak fluently in the film. Rajesh wanted the same crew members from his first two ventures, Siva Manasula Sakthi and Boss Engira Baskaran but unfortunately things did not work out that way due to date hassles faced by the technicians. Cinematographer Nirav Shah was to wield the camera but since he was unavailable, the makers have decided to proceed with Balasubramaniam.
