Production
The film began production in 2015.[4] The film notably only features two characters onscreen with the other characters appearing in voice roles.[1] Janani Iyer plays a bold journalist with no care about the consequences her daring actions will bring.[5][6] Iyer said, “It was tough as I had to speak a lot of Malayalam dialogues. I had to do my homework to get the lines right”.[7] Actor Pasupathy was cast in the role of a Tamilian as the director felt no Malayalam actor could do justice to the subtle character.[8] The film was shot in Kodaikanal for twenty days for twelve hours per day.[5]
Soundtrack
The music was composed by Gopi Sundar. A critic from Music Aloud wrote that "Ma Chu Ka (no clue what the name is supposed to imply). Short and middling soundtrack from Gopi Sunder".[9]
All lyrics are written by BK Harinarayanan.
