The critically acclaimed filmmaker, Siva admitted that although his film has a 'mythological-like setting', he added that his film's lead, Suriya, has no superpowers. Refuting all the rumours that Kanguva is a fantasy film, Siva also added that his movie is based on the historical events that happened 1500 years ago in Tamil Nadu. The director said:

"Kanguva is not a fantasy film and Suriya sir's character does not have any superpowers. I have always wanted to create an imaginary world and I managed to realise that dream with Kanguva."

Kanguva has a series of producers, including K. E. Gnanavel Raja, V. Vamsi Krishna Reddy, Pramod Uppalapati, Studio Green, and UV Creations. The film required a lot of financial backing because Siva, the movie's director wanted to use the latest tech in the movie world to bring his imaginary world onto the big screen.
