The film's launch was held in front of the Tiruparankunram Sri Subramaniaswamy temple near [[Madurai]] on 25 September 2008 with scenes for a song, "Kan Thiranthan Kandhan", also being shot near the temple.<ref>[https://archive.today/20120910013248/http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/009200809261211.htm]</ref> When Srikanth Deva was composing songs on the beaches of Pondicherry he was mobbed by fans and police came to his rescue.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-news-1/jan-09-02/jai-10-01-09.html|title=Police rescue Srikanth Deva from Pondy beach - behindwoods.com Arjunan Kaadhali Jai Poorna Paarthi Baskar Srikanth Deva Sivasakthi Pandiyan Kaadal Kottai image gallery review preview Tamil Actress Gallery Tamil Actress Images Stills|website=www.behindwoods.com}}</ref> In March 2009, the lead actor [[Jai (actor)|Jai]] ran into trouble for making controversial comments about the potential box office fare of his future films. The actor, who was filming for ''[[Vaamanan]]'', ''[[Aval Peyar Thamizharasi]]'', ''[[Adhe Neram Adhe Idam]]'' and ''Arjunan Kadhali'' at the time, revealed that only ''Vaamanan'' would do well and the rest would become financial failures. The producer of this film also revealed he wanted to take action against Jai for "making such irresponsible and damaging statements about his own films."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/breaking-news-jai-in-a-jam-news-tamil-kkfspBhaaha.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924154249/http://www.sify.com/movies/breaking-news-jai-in-a-jam-news-tamil-kkfspBhaaha.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=2015-09-24|title=Breaking News- Jai in a jam!|website=Sify}}</ref> Initially, the council had asked him to complete his pending assignments before he could start work on [[Venkat Prabhu]]'s ''[[Goa (2010 film)|Goa]]'', but, the producer of the film, [[Soundarya Rajinikanth]], intervened and bailed Jai out of the ban.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/others/news-interviews/Jai-goes-Goa/articleshow/4340346.cms|title=Jai goes Goa! - Times of India|website=The Times of India}}</ref>

The film progressed slowly and by December 2010, Jai revealed he had finished his portions for the film.<ref>[https://archive.today/20120912091529/http://www.thehindu.com/arts/cinema/article960967.ece]</ref> Despite finishing production, the film was delayed by distributor [[Ayngaran International]]'s financial problems and has since remained unreleased. In February 2013, the producer Sivasakthi Pandian was able to censor the film, while the music of the film was released two months later.<ref name="auto">{{cite web|url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/chennai/chen-cinema/audio-beat-scoring-with-songs-and-story/article4636628.ece|title=Audio beat: Scoring with songs and story|first=S.
