Following Sinha's exit from the film, Asin was selected to play the female lead, but due to date clashes with All is Well,[8] she opted out and was replaced by Shruti Haasan.[9][10] A debutante Sakshi Maggo from Delhi was given a role in the film. Sara Loren has been selected to perform an item song in the film.[11]
