Exit is not an experimental film; rather, Shaheen described it as a commercial with emotional elements. "We were also extremely certain that no character of that kind had ever been made in Malayalam cinema," he said.

The film's director also revealed that some true stories he heard as a young child served as the basis for the story. "To make it appealing to the current audience, all I did was approach it from a modern perspective," he stated.

The film features important roles for Reneesha Rahiman, Vaisakh Vijayan, and Sree Raam, an actor from Tamil. The movie was produced by Venu Gopalakrishnan. The script for Exit was co-written by the director and Anish Janaradhanan.
