Along with the release date announcement, a video into the making of the film was also released. The video promises that Vikram will be the biggest action entertainer.
A couple of weeks ago, the shoot of the film was finally completed after 110 days of filming.
Filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj tweeted, “After 110 days of shoot, it’s a WRAP. Thanx to the entire cast and crew for the EXTRAORDINARY effort (sic).”

The project was supposed to be wrapped up last November. The shoot had to be postponed after Kamal tested positive for the coronavirus. Eventually, the makers decided to shoot the entire schedule indoors in a specially built set for the sake of the senior actor’s health.
A set with more than 50 damaged cars was shifted to Binny Mills, Chennai, for the final schedule where a major action sequence was shot.
