Cast

Production

In early 2015, Prabhu Solomon approached Dhanush to play the lead role in his next film and by February 2015, the director had started pre-production work with a recce in North India.[4] Keerthy Suresh was signed to play the leading female role.

Thodari is the first Indian film that was shot entirely on a train.[5] The film's shoot took place predominantly on the Duronto Express, and the film features the lead pair travelling from Delhi to Chennai.[6] Hence, initially, a grand train set was put up at Binny Mills, Chennai during July 2015 for the film's initial schedule.[7] Production continued for sixty days straight, with the makers alternating between shooting the film in sets and on a live train.[8] Shoot progressed through the middle of 2015, with scenes also filmed in Goa and Hyderabad. In October 2015, a schedule was shot in Orissa, after which production was completed for scenes featuring Dhanush.[9][10][11] Prabhu Solomon continued to shoot further scenes featuring parallel stories throughout late 2015 and early 2016, with Ganesh Venkatraman filming scenes during January 2016.[12]
