Comedian Kadhal Sukumar began his career as a director in late 2012 through the production of Thirukkural, but the film was later shelved after a few schedules. His first release was consequently Thiruttu VCD featuring himself in a key role.[1] The film began production in 2014 and a press meet was held in September 2014.[2] The film is named after the three lead characters — who are portrayed by producer Prabha (Vinod), director Kadhal Sukumar (Chinna) and Mano (Dilli). Actress Sakshi Agarwal was supposed to make her Tamil film debut as a lead actress through the project, but production delays meant that her other films released first.[3][4][5]
