Production
editVijay filmed the movie using a Canon 5D that he had rented due to having a budget of only ₹250,000.[1] He did not begin filming until four years after he had finished the movie's script, as it took him a while to find a cast and crew that he felt could help him make the movie.[1] Casting took almost two years to complete and Vijay eventually chose actress Supriya Aysola to perform in the film's lead role.[2] Of the film's inspiration, Vijay has stated that he was inspired from a late-night television show that dealt with "extreme psycho-sexual disorders".[3]
