According to composer Anirudh Ravichander, the director Aishwarya Rajinikanth Dhanush wanted a lofty fresh song on love failure, and he had composed a suitable tune for that. Dhanush, then reportedly came up with this song in around 20 minutes. In an interview to The Times of India, Dhanush said "When I was writing down the lyrics, I kept in mind all the English words that are used in the Tamil vocabulary. Words like I, you, me, how, why, cow.. I just framed them into sentences and thats how I came up with the song."
According to Dhanush, the song's simplistic and rustic beats make it more catchy to the commoner. Heartbreak is a phenomenon almost everyone can relate to. The song was initially leaked to the internet, and the makers, having noticed its popularity, decided to go for an official release.
The lyrics of this song is rather simple and is written in the easiest form of Tanglish, a mixture of Tamil and English. The lyrics portray the feelings of an average Indian boy, who has failed in love, or who has some problems with his girl.
