Development
On 4 February 2017,
On 26 March 2017, Mohanlal confirmed the project officially via
Menon and Harikrishnan initially planned a children's film titled Randu Vaanavillukal, which was set in the
Harikrishnan got the plot idea when he was lecturing journalism classes; he asked the students to write a feature story to test their creativity. The subject was "if Hollywood director Steven Spielberg comes to Palakkad to meet the last Odiyan". The word "last" was registered in his mind and became the plot point in his screenplay. His story is about the last surviving Odiyan and the reasons his clan is almost extinct. The story spans 50 years and three generations of the last Odiyan lineage; it is set in the Thenkurissi village in Palakkad, where Odiyans were most popular. It is based on folktales prevalent in the Malabar region, chiefly in Palakkad. The screenplay was registered with the Writers Guild of America; producer Antony Perumbavoor gave them freedom to conceive the film as big as possible, giving the film an open budget.[3]
Pre-production
The initial plan was to shoot the film in 3D but the plan was later dropped.[10] In March 2017, it was reported that A. Sreekar Prasad would be the film's editor (he was later replaced by Johnkutty), M. Jayachandran as music director, P. M. Satheesh as sound designer, Peter Hein as stunt coordinator and Gokuldas (replaced by Prashanth Madhav) as art director. Menon said Odiyan is likely to release in 2017, but is uncertain as the film requires an extensive post-production with a large chunk of time need to be spent for visual effects. Filming was then scheduled to begin on 25 May 2017.[5] In June 2017, the film crew convened for a script discussion session at an outdoor location in Kava, Palakkad.[11] The film was then scheduled to begin on 1 August.[12]
The official
In August, Prashanth Madhav began the film's set work in Palakkad by creating the Thenkurissi village which pass through three eras in the story. The crew went for location
Casting
Both Harikrishnan and Menon wanted Mohanlal in the lead role from the film's initial discussion itself and the screenplay was later tailor-made with Mohanlal in mind.
In April, Menon confirmed
In September, Aneesh G. Menon confirmed he is part of the cast.[35] In November, Narain confirmed he is part of the cast and would join the film in its final schedule, which will shoot Odiyan Manikyan's younger age.[36] He plays the husband of Prabha and his scenes are with Mohanlal, Raj and Warrier.[37] From the teaser trailer released in December, more of the cast was revealed confirming Kailash, Sana Althaf, and Sreejaya Nair.[38] Sana plays Warrier's sister and Kailash's wife in the film. She said it was a difficult role to portray. The character has less screen time but is important in the script. Her character has transitioned from a young girl to an aged woman. Including Sana, many of the artists were prepared through a week long acting workshop. Atul Mongia served as the acting workshop director.[39]
Filming
Principal photography began on 25 August 2017 in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh.[40] Mohanlal joined the film three days later.[41] Some scenes were shot at the Assi Ghat with Mohanlal. Underwater action scenes were filmed in the Ganges River. In Varanasi, the film was extensively shot at the Havelis, the lanes, and the Ghats. Sreejaya Nair was also part of this schedule.[42] In the film, Odiyan Manikyan spent 15 years in the sacred lands of Varanasi before returning to his native village, Thenkurissi.[43] This period of his life, his older age, was filmed there. After completing, the crew left Varanasi by the end of the month and remaining was the scenes in Thenkurissi.[41] Since the film wanted a period setting, the modern-day Thenkurissi was unsuitable for filming. Hence, the village was recreated in a 20-acre land in Mucheeri, Palakkad district.[9] The second schedule in Palakkad was scheduled to begin on 6 September.[44] Raj joined the film with Mohanlal and Warrier in the banks of Bharathappuzha on 9 September.[45][46] A champion goat named Madurai Machadaiyan was used in the film.[47]
The film's climax portions was filmed from 6 October in Palakkad, which was scheduled to last for 25 days.
In meantime, the third schedule began by filming night scenes on 12 November in the absence of Mohanlal.[55] The film completed 50 days shooting by 20 November.[56] Mohanlal was to join the sets in December for the fourth schedule.[50] However, the schedule had to be postponed for two more months due to scheduling conflicts with Raj's dates.[57] Finally, the schedule commenced on 3 March 2018.[58][59] Scenes featuring the younger ages of Odiyan Manikyan, Prabha and Ravunni were filmed in this part.[60] Sana Althaf, Kailash, Narain, Siddique, and Innocent also joined the sets.[61] It was also the final schedule, during which 1960–1970 period was filmed in Palakkad.[62] Odiyan Manikyan's house was created in Kollengode, which is also the native place of screenwriter Harikrishnan.[10]
Olappamanna Mana, an illam situated in Vellinezhi, served as a location in March.[63] The song sequence featuring Mohanlal and Warrier was filmed at the Athirappilly Falls towards the end of the month.[64] A temple-like set was created for the song under the waterfall.[65][66] In early April, the scene where Odiyan Manikyan swam underwater across the Thenkurissi river was filmed.[67] Manoj Joshi joined the sets in the month.[68] Filming also took place in Vagamon, Idukki district.[69][70] Principal photography was completed by 25 April after 123 days of shooting. Final schedule alone lasted 50 days.[71][72] Filming was held in Malampuzha during the final wrap. Later, some pick-up footage was shot in May.[73] After four months and post-production, an additional three-day brief schedule took place from 18 to 20 October in Kochi. Mohanlal also joined.[74][75] The film in its entirety was completed in 145 days shooting.[76][77]

Jayachandran began composing the songs in June 2017.[86][87] Composing took place at GreenPark hotel in Chennai. Mohanlal was also present during the time. Jayachandran composed the film's five songs in five days.[88] For the song "Kondoram", lyrics were written after the tune was composed. Ahamed wrote the lines in a style resembling dialogue writing.[89] Recording took place at Chennai (Musik Lounge Studio) and Mumbai.[90] Shankar Mahadevan recorded the song "Nenjile" in August 2017.[91]
For scoring, Menon chose Sam after he was impressed by his work in Vikram Vedha (2017).[92] Sam joined the film after the songs were already composed.[93] Scoring began in January 2018. Following his usual method, Sam composed the score beforehand based on the screenplay, contrary to the conventional method of scoring the filmed scenes during post-production.[94] The musical score was then played while filming. Since the film had a period setting, old ethnic musical instruments of Kerala was utilised in the score.[93][95] The film's theme music was chosen from four themes composed by Sam.[92]
