Music is by GV Prakash, cinematography by Chezhiyan, dialogues are by Nanjil Nadan and editing by Kishore. Paradesi has been shot back-to-back in Salur and Manamadurai in Sivagangai district, in parts of Kerala- Munnar and Talaiyar and the forest areas of Kannakarai in Theni district.

The film is slated for a release in Tamil and Telugu in October.
