Unnidathil Ennai Koduthen was set to feature Vijay in the lead role, whom Vikraman worked with in Poove Unakkaga, but production delays meant that the actor was replaced by Karthik.[1]Meena also had to reject an offer to star in the leading female role due to date problems.[2]Swathi was initially approached to appear in a single song sequence for the film, but her refusal led to Anusha being chosen.[3][4]
Ajith later revealed that his role in the film was initially supposed to be a full length role but the character underwent changes after the film started. He continued to play his part in the film due to his admiration for his co-actor, Karthik.[5][6] The success of Unnidathil Ennai Koduthen later led to Karthik making a guest appearance in the Ajith film Anantha Poongatre.[7]
