Recently, during an awards ceremony, Trisha had stated that she was excited to team up with Vijay after a span of 14 long years. "We had done four films together earlier (Ghilli, Thirupaachi, Aathi and Kuruvi) and thanks to Lokesh, this film will be nothing like any of the previous films. However, the chemistry between Vijay and me would be intact."

Trisha had first teamed up with Vijay in Ghilli (2004). The actress had stated in an interview that she didn't have much of a rapport with Vijay then as he was very quiet on sets. But thanks to the team, they soon became friends and together gave some of the biggest hits. Ghilli was a milestone in the career of both Vijay and Trisha.
