Until a few days back, there were rumours that another young actor would replace Jiiva in this film. But the 'Ko' star clarified on his microblogging page, "There is no such thing that I am getting out of Mugamoodi. It’s just rumours rumours and rumours."

According to Dhananjayan, who heads UTV Motion Pictures, "Jiiva is our superhero in Mugamoodi. We are amazed by his preparation, hard work and commitment for this film. No confusion. We are unveiling the video on Jiiva's preparation for the superhero role in Mugamoodi".
