The director also stated that Moothon is not an intense film, but it is a movie which narrates a simple story on a light background. Each of the roles in the movie is exceptionally strong and performance-oriented.

Interestingly, Nivin Pauly immediately agreed to do the project, when Geetu Mohandas approached him with the script. The director feels that the presence of a successful mainstream actor Nivin will definitely help the movie.

Moothon will be widely shot at the various locations of Lakshadweep and Mumbai. The team is planning to start the shooting by the first week of April, after Nivin completes his current projects.

Anurag Kashyap, the Bollywood director has co-written the dialogues of the movie. Rajeev Ravi handles the cinematography. Moothon is jointly produced by director Aanand L Rai, Ajay G Rai, and Alan MC'Alex.
