The film revolves around one character, played by Menen, and was shot in 23 days. The actress told The Hindu:
“It was a draining exercise; I would be enacting one scene in all four languages. In surround sync, the ambient noise gets recorded. So if there’s a bird crowing away where it’s not required, I’d have to do it all over again.”
