The film's producer Raahul of Romeo Pictures took to his X timeline to make the announcement. He wrote, "This is to leave an imprint, #KISS you in July #KissFromJuly."

What a fun ride it has been working with the super talented @kavin_m_0431 @dancersatz & @dop_harish. Waiting for everyone to see the magic you both have created.

The film has stunts by
Peter Hein
and cinematography by Harish.
Mohan Mahendiran
has taken care of the art direction department and Pranav is in charge of editing.
A teaser released earlier by the unit showed Kavin playing a guy who is extremely violent in the film, with an aversion for romance and love. His aversion is so much that he even shuts a shop in order to protest Valentine's Day. The teaser ends with Preeti Asrani taking a romantic interest in Kavin and asking him to tell her about his first kiss...
For Kavin, a lot will be riding on this film as his previous film director Sivabalan Muthukumar's 'Bloody Beggar', did not fare all that well at the box office. 'Bloody Beggar' was produced by Kavin's close friend director Nelson Dilipkumar under his production company Filament Pictures.
