Manikandan said that he denied and said, "I told them that it is my absolute honour to play this role and she immediately started crying. She asked me if people from Tamil Nadu would watch the movie understand their plight. I said the whole world would watch it. She cried even more and told me that this is enough for them."

Talking about the experience he had in shooting the custodial violence scenes by police, he said, "We can endure the pain that happens during a shoot, but someone has lived here has endured custodial torture. I wanted to depict the pain in the right manner. We don't have a problem. When we say 'cut', they'll stop the scene. Same goes with 'pack-up'. It is not the same for him. What happened to Rajakannu in real life was too horrible. I wanted to at least portray 10 per cent of what he endured."
