According to the film's crew, shooting in Fatehpur Sikri landed them in a sensitive situation. The residents of Fatehpur Sikri village took strong objection to a romantic scene being shot at the venue.

The villagers, who watched the shooting peacefully for two days, raised noisy objections to the scene on the third day and forced the unit to shift location.

The film, for which Vaibhava Balu has scored music while Vairamuthu and Thiraivannan have written the lyrics, has been shot in locations like Cherrapunji, Kulu-Manali, Alapuzha and Delhi besides Agra.
