Production
Following the success of their previous collaboration, Darling (2015), director Sam Anton and G. V. Prakash Kumar began pre-production work on a film titled Kaipulla to be produced by Studio Green. However, the studio later backed out of the film.[2][3] Lyca Productions revealed that they would produce the project during November 2015, and that it would become their second venture after Kaththi (2014).[4][5]
The team held an official launch on 15 December 2015 and the first schedule subsequently began later that day, with the film developing under the working title of Enakku Innoru Per Irukku, a line taken from the film, Baashha (1995).[6] The film progressed throughout the month with Nirosha and Saravanan joining the film's cast.[7] Filming wrapped in March 2016.[8]
Soundtrack
The music is composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar.[citation needed] It includes a remix of the song "Kannai Nambathey" from the 1975 Tamil film Ninaithadhai Mudippavan.[9]

Reception
Chennai Vision wrote "To sum it up, Enakku Innoru Per Irukku, despite its loophools and pitfalls, is a highly entertaining movie. Foget the logic and enjoy the magic, if your choice for the weekend is a value for money timepass entertainer".[10] Behindwoods wrote "Having said all this, EIPI might become that close to reality film for a set of youngsters and eventually making it an entertaining film that might enjoy a stay in the box office".[11] Gautaman Bhaskaran of Hindustan Times wrote, "With performances either wooden, like in the case of Kumar or exaggerated from the rest of the cast, Anton’s 130-minute movie turns into a merry-go-round with the images spinning all around it in mindless medley of incidents".[12] Only Kollywood wrote "Director Sam Anton seems to know the pulse of youngsters and never manages to miss an opportunity when it comes to playing to the gallery. His screenplay nicely weaves unabashedly humorous situations and propels the story forward".[13] Baradwaj Rangan wrote a negative review for The Hindu.[14]
