One of the screenwriters Sanjay said the name 'Chandran' was considered for the character from the very beginning. But the power of the character has doubled with the addition of the place name Kadakkal to Chandran. Prior to the name, Kadakkal is very attractive also. The idea struck him when he went through this place several times. When the screenwriters thought of such a background, they came up with the idea of why Chandran could not be a Kollam district resident. That's it. Each region has its own politics. That is the politics of Chandran. Chandran got that majesty when the name of the place was added to the name of the leader and it was when Kadakkal came along.
The story of this movie was completed in 2019.
This is the first film in which Mammootty plays the role of the Chief Minister of Kerala.
Mammootty's private secretary Roshan Alex was played by Chavara's NDA candidate in 2021 Vivek Gopan.
