Production
By June 2014, Suriya launched his second production under his then new-launched studio 2D Entertainment, a children's film by Pandiraj.[1] Suriya had wanted to begin 2D Entertainment with a newcomer's film and listened to over 50 scripts but said that he was impressed by Pandiraj's script only, adding that his story was entertaining and had a message.[2]According to the director, the film ' and will offer a beautiful experience to all".[3] Pandiraj was searching for nearly eight months for suitable children to play the protagonists, meeting about 150 children, before selecting Nishesh, Baby Vaishnavi and Aarush.[4] Bindu Madhavi, who had worked with Pandiraj in Kedi Billa Killadi Ranga, was given a lead role and Karthik Kumar was cast as her romantic interest.[5] Suriya besides producing the film agreed to play a small role in it as Tamil Naadan, a social activist. Paired opposite him was Amala Paul, who enacted the role a teacher named Venba.[6] Before Amala Paul was signed for the role, Jyothika was under consideration, with Pandiraj stating that it "would be nice" if Jyothika played that role.[7]
The director initially shot for few days in July 2014 but then had to put it back to complete Idhu Namma Aalu.[8] Principal photography with Suriya commenced on 25 February 2015.[9][10] In May 2015, a song was filmed on Suriya and over 60 children.[11] Suriya and Amala Paul's portions were wrapped up later that month.[12] In August, Pandiraj announced that the title "Haiku" would not be retained, and that he would come up with a new title to take advantage of the Tamil Nadu Government's rule of entertainment tax exemption for films with Tamil titles.[13] The title was later revealed to be "Pasanga 2".[14]
