Production
Production on the film began in 2014 under the title of Oattathoodhuvan and the directorship of Ra. Mu. Chidambaram, who revealed that the film would be based on Indian mail runners from the 1850s. Ram Arun Castro, an engineering graduate from BITS Pilani, made his acting debut through the film, following two years of acting training with the New York Film Academy. The film’s original producer opted out of the film before the start of the production phase, prompting Castro to take over as the film’s lead producer. The film was shot throughout 2015 in a village in the Theni district, with sets made to replicate the area in 1854. As the team sought distributors to help release the film, it was screened in the Chennai International Film Festival (CIFF), Kolkata International Film Festival (KIFF), and Bengaluru International Film Festival (BIFF) among other ceremonies.
In mid-2023, the film re-emerged again under the title of Harkara, with Ram Arun Castro revealed as the film’s director. Castro had shot extra scenes for the film to include Kaali Venkat as a modern day postman, and prepared the film for release.
A day prior to the eventual release of the film in August 2023, Chidambaram sought a permanent ban on the film stating that he was not given the due credits in the film and that he and Ram Arun Castro had equal shares in the project. Chidambaram’s counsel noted that Castro had added a couple of scenes in the film, renamed it to Harkara without permission, and then taken solo credit as the writer and director.
