Production

Development

Following the release of his home production, "Evano Oruvan", in December 2007, Madhavan announced his intentions on remaking the 1997 Hindi language film, "Yes Boss", which starred Shahrukh Khan and Juhi Chawla in the lead roles. The director, a remake specialist, Selvah was assigned to direct the movie which was to be produced by KRG, one of the veteran producers and President of South Indian Film Chamber.cite web|author=Shankar, Settu|year=2007|title=Madhavan remakes Yes Boss!!|publisher=OneIndia.com|accessdate=2007-12-21|url=http://entertainment.oneindia.in/tamil/exclusive/madhavan-remake-yes-boss-211207.html]

Following cast selection and story adjustions, the film had its launch on May 2, 2008, with only Madhavan and Mamta Mohandas among the cast attending at a small ceremony at Adyar, Chennai.cite web|author=|year=2008|title=Three cheers in Kollywood|publisher=Indiaglitz.com|accessdate=2008-05-02|url=http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/tamil/article/38320.html] Shooting for the film started at Chennai in May 2008 and continued in various locations in Kerala.

Casting

The casting process took four months for the director and producer to settle. Initially it was expected that Nayantara would appear opposite Madhavan in the lead role, however Nayantara opted out due to involvements in bigger projects such as "Kuselan", "Aegan" and "Villu".cite web|author=|year=2008|title=Maddy or Danush for Nayantara?|publisher=Chennai365.com|accessdate=2008-01-10|url=http://www.chennai365.com/movies/maddy-or-danush-for-nayantara/] Sameera Reddy was briefly linked to the role,cite web|author=|year=2008|title=Madhavan on Shah Rukh Khan’s role|publisher=Kollywoodtoday.com|accessdate=2008-01-05|url=http://www.kollywoodtoday.com/news/madhavan-on-shah-rukh-khans-role/] but eventually Mamta Mohandas claimed the lead female role, portraying a model.
