The first look poster showed Dhruv Vikram with hands on his hop, as there is another picture of him sitting on his toes. Behind him, are the horns of a bull, in hues of red. The film will be a sports drama based on kabaddi, which will also star actor Anupama Parameswaran as the female lead. It marks the first time Mari Selvaraj will be directing Dhruv Vikram.

Bison had been announced years back, but ever since Mari Selvaraj had the opportunities to work with Dhanush in Karnan, and Udhayanidhi and Vadivelu in Maamannan, the film was pushed. Soon after the release of Mari Selvaraj’s Vaazhai, the filmmaker began working with Dhruv Vikram for the sports drama.
