In a recent interview with The Indian Express, Karthi mentioned, "If you have read Rajumuruagan's writing, such as his magazine series Vattiyum Mudhalum, you would know what kind of a person he is. We saw a bit of that side in Joker. With Japan, he is in a different zone. It's a crime thriller, and the very idea of such a genre from him was pretty exciting. I should say I forced myself into the project (laughs). We are pushing the boundaries with this one."
Also, In an interview with Variety, Karthi revealed that the film is scheduled for release in November, coinciding with the Diwali holiday in Tamil and Telugu regions. Describing the movie as a crime thriller with a manhunt theme, he emphasised the strong foundation of the writing and well-developed characters.
