Shankar, known for his big-budget lavish films, is known to spare no expense in bringing local or international talent to work on his films. Hollywood makeup artist Sean Foot had worked on his last film, I (2015).
The film stars Rajinikanth and Amy Jackson, with Bollywood star Akshay Kumar playing the antagonist. AR Rahman will compose the score for the film, and Nirav Shah will helm the camera.
