In her recent interview to Vikatan, director Sudha Kongara has revealed that Soorarai Pottru was supposed to be the second film in her career, but she opted to do after Irudhi Suttru due to the constraints related to the budget. Sudha said “I should be very thankful to Suriya because he decided to produce the film on his own, without asking too many questions. If you have to rent out a flight for a day, it costs 47 lakhs, but there weren’t any fusses while shooting.”

Sudha also added that Soorarai Pottru is not a biopic of GR Gopinath, but a film that is based on the incidents from his life, added to a cinematic flavor.
