The Endraavathu Oru Naal director received many accolades for his work regarding this film. Even before the release, the film became famous at the film festivals and won 43 awards. The production of Endraavathu Oru Naal started in late 2020 and was shot in Vellakoil near Tiruppur. Vidharth and Ramya Nambeeshan played the lead roles in Endraavathu Oru Naal.

Vetri talked about this film in an interview with The New Indian Express in 2021. Vetri had written the story six years ago. “This script is close to my heart. The cows in the film are owned by my family. We saved them from the slaughterhouse by paying a huge sum to the previous owner. So, I wanted to talk about the connection we share with the animals”, he said. Vetri added that regarding the problem of child labour, children working in shops and hotels have become a regular feature. According to the filmmaker, it should be understood to what extent a family is pushed for them to agree to such a proposition. He had said that the villain in this film isn’t any character but a situation.
