Cast

Production

Party is entirely filmed in the Fiji Islands.[5][6] The project was publicly announced in a promotional event for the film Gemini Ganeshanum Suruli Raajanum. For this film, director Venkat Prabhu decided to pick Premgi Amaren to compose the film's soundtrack and the background score entirely, replacing his usual choice, Yuvan Shankar Raja who composed for all the director's ventures. It was noted that Premgi earlier composed one song in Chennai 600028 film and also doing the additional background score of the director's previous films as well.[7][8] In an interview, Chandran added that, the filming is like going on an excursion and the director is handling the big star cast with absolute ease.[9][10] Rajesh Yadav and Praveen were selected as the cinematographer and editor respectively, continuing their association with the director where they worked together in Chennai 600028 II.[11] Stunt Silva signed in as stunt choreographer for this project.[12] A promotional teaser was released on 13 December 2017, and was followed by two more that introduced the cast and revealed their respective characters.[13]

Soundtrack

Unlike Prabhu's previous projects which had Yuvan Shankar Raja composing the film's soundtrack and score, Premgi Amaren both composed the film's soundtrack and score as well for this project. A single was launched on 2 July 2018, which features actors Suriya and Karthi making their second ventures as playback singers.

Release

Despite filming having completed and the film cleared by the censor board, the film remains unreleased, although the makers were adamant on a theatrical release only, rather than direct-to-streaming.[14][15][16]

In July 2023, producer T. Siva revealed that the delay in the film's release was down to the Fijian government's decision to change the subsidy levied on film shoots in the country. He revealed that the team had conducted the shoot with an agreement of a fee concession of 47% but due to the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in Fiji, the process of refunding the money for films shot in the country was suspended. He suggested that the amount would not be refunded if the film was released, so opted to put the film on hold. [17]
