The movie, directed by Vishnu Revikumar, is a joint venture between Martin Prakkat Films and Green Room Productions. Based on a novel by GR Indugopan, the screenplay is penned by Martin Prakkat and Dr Neeraj Rajan, known for their work on Dominic and the Ladies' Purse (2025) and ABCD (2013). Suraj Venjaramoodu, Anu Sithara, Suhasini Maniratnam, Hakkim Shajahan, and Vinay Forrt are among the other cast members. Roby Varghese Raj is the film's cinematographer, while Chaman Chakko edited Hail Mary. Jakes Bejoy is responsible for the music. This marks the third collaboration between Kunchacko and Martin, after Nayattu and Officer on Duty. Kunchacko recently starred in Unmadham, a psychological thriller directed by Kiran Das. The Hindu reviewed Unmadham, describing it as a film that explores the struggles of a police officer aspiring to be in the film industry and a commentary on the abundance of police procedurals based on real-life cases.",
