During the trailer launch, Kangana Ranaut revealed that when she received the script from director Vijay, he told her that she will have to learn and speak Tamil in the movie. She added that the filmmaker revealed to her that her voice will comprise half of her performance, thus it is important for her to speak Tamil in the same. The Tanu Weds Manu Returns actor went on to say that she took this as a challenge but her Tamil accent was only rejected by Vijay.

Speaking on the same, Kangana Ranaut further revealed, "I had learnt the language to speak but I would not say that my accent was right. My accent is nowhere close to being right. But I could just learn the words and that also very difficult for me, to be honest. Tamil particularly, is very difficult like Sanskrit. So, its Vijay sir's call but I don't think he is okay with my Tamil. He is auditioning a lot of people from Tamil Nadu. He has found some voice in Hyderabad. He said, 'I found the crystal clear Tamil voice.' So obviously, he has rejected me long ago."
