The director had said that his train journey in 1991 to Ghaziabad from Neyveli that lasted two days and one night provided him with a plot to write Thodari, which means train in Tamil. Prabhu, who is known for making films with newcomers, has cast A-lister Dhanush in this romantic thriller.

The film is about a blooming romance between Keerthi Suresh, who seems to be a runaway, and Dhanush, a pantry boy on the train, amid a hijack.
