Nazriya came out of a four-year acting hiatus for this; Anjali Menon wrote Jennifer specifically for her, calling her 'the only one who could make death feel this alive.'
The film's Malayalam title 'Koode' means 'together'—the entire narrative is structured around who Joshua is with versus who he's actually present for, culminating in his first genuine solo moment.
