The second schedule began on February 6 and the shoot go on until February 22. [[Jai (actor)|Jai]] plays the lead and will be seen in two different dimensions, [[Varalaxmi Sarathkumar]] portrays a snake woman. [[Raai Laxmi]] and [[Catherine Tresa]] are the other female lead roles. [[Bala Saravanan]] will be providing comedy. Director L. Suresh informed, “The grandeur is nowhere going to be seen as a gaudy factor. But the script demands such elements, which will definitely be a great experience to the audiences. One of the greatest highlights of this film is a 22-ft CGI motion captured serpent to be seen in an important role and will be seen throughout the movie. To make sure that we got the exact serpent as we imagined, cinematographer Rajevel and I had to travel across different places of India and Thailand. Finally, we happened to find the exact one in Bangkok.  It took enough time to understand its physique, body language and nature. We’re sure its appearance and presence throughout the film would be an enjoyable experience for universal audiences.”

The soundtrack was composed by [[Shabir]] in his second film composed after [[Sagaa]].
