The film is to be produced jointly by Unni Mukundan's production house, Unni Mukundan Films (UMF), and Einstin Media. The announcement, made on the birthday of director Joshiy, is a deep rooted and profound appreciation to one of the most iconic voices in Indian cinema.

Unni Mukundan and Joshiy join forces for an actioner
This is Unni's first outing with Joshiy, who is known for helming several celebrated mass entertainers over the years. According to the makers, the upcoming film will feature Unni in a "never-before-seen avatar". It is scripted by Abhilash N Chandran, who wrote Joshiy's Porinju Mariam Jose and his son Abhilash Joshiy's King of Kotha. While Joshiy last made Antony with Joju George, Unni's last release was Get-Set Baby, in which he played a male gynaecologist. Although the actor had announced a sequel to Marco, he recently opted out of the project, citing 'negativity around it'.
