The film was actor Jaggesh's debut as a director and said that he took up the project on his son's insistence as a launchpad to the latter. The film was produced under the then-launched banner by Jaggesh, Gururaj Films.
The story for the film was chosen by Jaggesh from politician Karunanidhi's camp, receiving it from his son M. K. Tamailarasu. Jaggesh also wrote the script for the film. Speaking of the film, he said, "Guru will be a commercial film, but will not have a routine story. You will get the retro feel with this film. Such incidents would have occurred in everybody's life". To prepare for his role in the film, Gururaj underwent training in kickboxing and other martial arts for a period of five and a half months in Cambodia. The film was launched in Mantralayam in May 2012, before filming that began in June 2012.
