Production[]
The announcement on the making of the film was announced by director Manikandan in 2016 but the progress of the film was delayed due to unknown reasons.[3] The reports revealed that the director also went onto approach Rajinikanth to play the role of protagonist but the offer was turned down by the veteran actor.[4] In 2018, director revealed that the film would feature Vijay Sethupathi in the lead role and making it the second collaboration between himself and the actor after Aandavan Kattalai in 2016.[5]
The official confirmation regarding the filming of Kadaisi Vivasayi was announced in around April 2018 with the plot of the film based on the importance of agriculture portraying Vijay Sethupathi a cameo in the role of a farmer.[6][7] It was also revealed that Vijay Sethupathi had silently wrapped up his portions in the film in September 2018 while he was busy in other films such as Junga and Maamanithan.[8]
Controversy[]
The film originally had songs and background score by Ilaiyaraaja,[9] but director Manikandan replaced Ilaiyaraaja with Santhosh Narayanan as he was n't satisfied with the background score,[10]prompting the veteran to lodge a complaint against the director at Music composer’s association.[11]
