This will be Boney's third collaboration with Ajith after 'Valimai' and 'Nerkonda Paarvai'. His second film with Ajith 'Valimai' in Tamil is releasing on February 24. The film was supposed to have originally hit screens on January 13 for Pongal. However, it was postponed after the government imposed restrictions to contain the spread of the third wave of the pandemic.
While announcing the decision to postpone the film due to the pandemic, Boney Kapoor had said, "Given the steep rise in Covid infections across the globe, and abiding by the regulations of the authorities, we have decided to postpone the release of our film, 'Valimai' until the situation normalises."
Amongst Boney's films that commenced and wrapped the shoot in the middle of the pandemic are the Ajith-starrer 'Valimai', Ajay Devgn-starrer 'Maidaan', Udhayanidhi Stalin's 'Nenjuku Needhi', Veetla Visheshanga and Janhvi Kapoor's 'Mili'.
