S.A. Rajkannu is a name to reckon with in Tamil film industry. Among the famous films he produced was his maiden production venture, the 1977 super-duper hit film 16 Vayadhinile, which launched Sridevi and superstar Rajinikanth in a big way in Kollywood. Rajkannu’s son is now debuting as hero in Tamil films in a film titled Kalathur Gramam which would have music by Ilaiyaraaja.

Kalathur Gramam would be directed by Saran K Advaithan and stars Mithun Kumar, son of Rajkannu and who worked as assistant director under Magizh Thirumeni in films such as Thadaiyara Thakka and Meaghamann. Mithun Kumar also worked as director of the digitized version of the classic 16 Vayadhinile. Ilaiyaraaja’s music is certainly the strongest USP of the director and the hero.

S.A.Rajkannu, the producer of 16 Vayathinile decided to launch his son Mithun Kumar and producer Avudaithai Ramamoorthy bank rolled the project under his banner A.R. Movie Paradise. Kannada actress Yagna Shetty was signed as the leading actress. Actor Kishore, Tarun Shatriya and Ajay Rathnam also joined the cast. On signing Ilaiyaraaja as music director, film director Saran said, "While I was writing the script, which is set in the backdrop of a dry and barren land, I thought only Raaja sir would do justice to the film and informed my producer and we narrated the script to Raaja sir - he liked it and agreed to be a part of it, if we adhered to certain conditions". Actor Kishore is sporting two entirely different looks in the film that spans the time frame between the 80s to 2000. The first schedule of the film was completed in Thoothukudi, while the remaining portions was completed in Chennai.
