But he said what inspired him to make this movie was lessons he learnt from Manal Magudi theatre group in Kovilpatti in southern Tamil Nadu. He assisted in several short film projects and a feature film in the past.

Many of them cried, elder women, everyone… Some said they spotted their own life in the movie,” he told The Indian Express on Monday. Before the post production was completed, a ‘rough cut’ of the movie was screened at Vinothraj’s Madurai home for all his family members and neighbours, including his sister.
