The responsibility of production falls under Gauri Khan’s purview through Red Chillies Entertainment, while Gaurav Verma takes on the role of co-producer. On June 3, 2022, the company made an official announcement, putting any doubts to rest and affirming the project’s development. Notably, the production has been allocated a substantial budget of ₹300 crore.
Collaborating closely with S. Ramana Girivasan, Atlee co-wrote the film’s script, marking their fourth consecutive partnership. The dialogue contributions were provided by Sumit Arora.
