About the film, Ram said, 'It will be an entertaining film. You can even call it an action thriller. There is romance, and a mix of a lot of genres. We have made it with a lot of conviction and it is an ambitious film. Major portions of the film were shot on sets, as Yezhu Kadal Yezhu Malai is totally opposite to Paranthu Po, in terms of story, music, and filmmaking style.' The director added that Yezhu Kadal Yezhu Malai was supposed to have released before Paranthu Po, but due to some issues, it has been facing delays.
Produced by Suresh Kamatchi under V House Productions, Yezhu Kadal Yezhu Malai has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, with NK Ekambaram handling the cinematography. Mathi VS is the editor. As per reports, the film is set within a moving train and revolves around the encounter between a man in his 30s and an 8,000-year-old immortal, with a rat caught between them.
