Srikanth have been hired as editors.[2] The film, set in Chennai, happens within 12 hours. It was shot completely around Ritchie Street, Mount Road and Vepery.[3]

It was first reported that talks were on with Yuvan Shankar Raja to compose music,[4] but singer Sathyan Mahalingam was finalized as the composer.[5][6]

The Times of India wrote “A not-so-bad message towards the end and the writing in some sequences make the film a tolerable watch”.[7] Sify wrote “Vizhithiru’s core story has the potential of a classic thriller, the characters too are interestingly written but what works against the movie is the flat execution”.[8][9]
