Talking about the unique title of the film, Karthik says, "The character can't face any natural source of light, including the sun. A lot of people mistook this film as a thriller, going by the trailer. The title here refers to the conflict between a character named Surya and the sun. It's also about the conflicts within the character Surya. Some of us have inner conflicts that we can't resolve or express. Along the course of the film, how does Surya overcome his inhibitions of life forms the crux."

"Out of the 45 days we spent on shooting the film, nearly 40 days were spent on night shoots. It was extremely challenging not just for me but for my actors as well. Most of them found this experience nerve-wrecking as it required them to shoot at odd hours in the night," the director adds.
