Mohanan who plays Vijay's love interest in the movie has apparently been undergoing training in mixed martial arts and a martial arts form named parkour. 

The actress's role in the movie is said to be demanding of being able to pull stunts and Mohanan is said to be taking all possible steps to bring out her best. A Lokesh Kanagaraj directorial, Master is scheduled for a April, 2020 release and Malavika recently shot for a action sequence in the film.

The film has music by Anirudh and also stars Vijay Sethupathy, Arjun Das, Andrea, Sriman and Shanthanu Bhagyaraj among others.
