Production
In May 2016, Ajay Gnanamuthu, who had previously made the successful horror film Demonte Colony (2015) agreed to work on a new film starring Atharvaa in the lead role. Initially reported to be a "romantic-thriller", it was revealed that the film was initially supposed to be made as the director's debut was delayed due to unforeseen circumstances. Thereafter, Jayakumar of Cameo Films agreed to finance the venture and revealed that the shoot would begin during September 2016. For the technical crew, R. D. Rajasekhar was selected as the cameraman, Selvakumar as the art director, Pattukottai Prabhakar as the dialogue writer and Bhuvan Srinivasan as the editor. Meanwhile, Hiphop Tamizha was selected to be the music composer, while the film was titled as Imaikka Nodigal during September 2016.
The team signed actress Nayanthara to play a pivotal role in the project, as Gnanmuthu was looking for a "strong female protagonist", and after hearing the script, the actress immediately agreed to be a part of the venture. For a further role, the team were on the lookout for a "pan-Indian actor" considering both Prabhu Deva, Gautham Menon and Anurag Kashyap for the character. Raashi Khanna was also signed on to portray another character in the film, appearing as Atharvaa's love interest.
Filming
Filming took place in Bangalore. In December 2016, Imaikkaa Nodigal became the first film to be shot inside the underground tunnel stretch of the Namma Metro. Filming took place after metro services ceased at 10 PM. According to Jayakumar, "The script of the film demanded shooting in various places of Bengaluru. We have been shooting in the city for the last 25 days. In the metro tunnel stretch, we shot scenes for two nights."
