Storyline

The film revolves around a coming of age story of a 14 year old boy in Kolkata and why he decides to behave the way he does against all odds and the reasons behind it. The film will premiere at the 2014 Berlin International Film Festival.

Rohini revealed that Appavin Meesai is based on a true incident about a young boy that she had read in a Telugu newspaper back in 2007. She was inspired to develop a script based on the incident, in Tamil rather than Telugu and soon after that began approaching people to make the film. She initially failed to find a producer for the film and thus gave the script to Cheran to check whether the screenplay was working or not and after he read it, he came forward to produce the film. The project was announced in July 2012 with actress Rohini marking her debut as a director, with Cheran signed on to play a role in the venture. The team began filming in West Bengal in September 2012, with scenes involving Nassar and Pasupathy being shot. Indian child actress Ahsaas Channa also shot for the film in the initial schedules, finishing her portions in January 2013. Nithya Menen and Salim Kumar were later also roped in to play pivotal roles in the film.
Cheran will also be the music producer for the film with his newly formed label, Dream Sounds. Achu Rajamani is the film\\\'s composer, while Resul Pookutty is the sound editor.
