Soori, Vijay Sethupathi, Bhavani Sre, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Rajiv Menon, Ilavarasu, Balaji Sakthivel, Saravana Subbiah, Chetan and Munnar Ramesh reprises their role from the first film.
Viduthalai was originated to be a single-part movie. However, on July 2022, it was reported that the film would be released in two parts due to the film becoming overlong and not wanting to trim the film tampering the story, which was officially announced on Vetrimaaran’s birthday (4 September 2022).
Both parts were shot back-to-back, with the first part’s shooting wrapping up in November, and releasing on 31 March 2023, but with the second part still having to shoot a few portions, which resumed in July.
The film along with its predecessor had its world premiere at 53rd International Film Festival Rotterdam on 31 January 2024.
