"While working with Ajith in 'English Vinglish', Sridevi had expressed her desire that Ajith does a Tamil film for our home production. Nothing exciting came up till one day last year; Ajith suggested remaking 'Pink' in Tamil. She immediately agreed as she thought it was the most appropriate and timely film to make and Ajith would bring all the elements required to make it into a great Tamil film," Kapoor had previously said.
The film features music by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Popular lensman Nirav Shah has been roped in to crank the camera. Kapoor also confirmed that he has another project with Ajith in the offing.
