Initially Meena and Roja was selected for the title roles and both reject the offer to act as elder sister role and wished ti act for younger sister role and finally Kushboo selected for Vanaja (elder sister role) and Meena selected for Girija (younger sister role). After hearing Ramki is the pair for her, Meena opted out of the film due to her star value for selecting heroine roles only with top actors. Then Keyaar selected Mohini for the role of Girija, as he introduced her in the cine industry.[citation needed]
