He cast Ineya in the leading female role, opposite a Malayalam actor Felix Kuruvilla who plays the ghost Stephen in the film, while Rahman also accepted to work on the film after being convinced by Jaison's Pazhayattu narration. Malayalam actor Nikhil Mohan, Kannada actor Akash and Swathi Deekshith, who had earlier appeared in Ram Gopal Varma's horror film 'Ice Cream' (2014) were also signed. The film was also one of the final projects of cinematographer Anandakuttan, who was replaced by I. Francis after his death. 'Sathura Adi 3500' was shot extensively in Bengaluru, Chalakudy, ECR and other interior parts of Chennai during late 2016. The success of 'Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru' (2016) starring Rahman prompted producers of his delayed ventures to publicise and release their films to make most of the actor's renaissance at the box office. Subsequently, after the release of 'Pagadi Aattam' in February 2017 and 'Oru Mugathirai' in March 2017, the makers of 'Sathura Adi 5000' chose to promote Rahman as one of the film's main characters despite his relatively small role. During the film's audio launch in July 2017, veteran director K. Bhagyaraj criticised actress Ineya for failing to attend the event. Bhagyaraj called for producers to think twice before casting her, and stated that she was not in the top bracket of actresses. Ineya later played down Bhagyaraj's comments and stated she was recuperating from an ankle injury. She also revealed that the team had merely sent her a WhatsApp message telling her to attend rather than providing a formal invitation. SoundtrackThe film's music was composed by Ganesh Raghavendra, while the audio rights of the film was acquired by Times Music India. The album released on 25 July 2017 and featured four songs. ReleaseThe film opened on 4 August 2017 to mixed reviews, with the critic from The Times of India giving the film a negative review and stating "the film lacks a proper script". The critic further added that "the film lacks a hero who can emote at least in a couple of scenes", "lacks humour", "actors lack enthusiasm", while concluding it "lacks good music", "lacks good visuals", "lacks the basic thrill that a film involving a murder, a ghost and an investigation should have" and that "it lacks empathy for the poor audience who might buy a ticket for the film in the hopes of having a good time". A critic from the Deccan Chronicle called the film "tacky and unconvincing", while the New Indian Express claimed it "was a horror show indeed".
