On 26 January 2025, director Raju Murugan was announced to collaborate with M. Sasikumar for his next project titled My Lord.[2] The announcement was made through a first-look poster featuring Sasikumar alongside Kannada actress Chaithra J Achar in the lead role, intended to mark her Tamil debut.[3] It was produced by Jayanthi Ambethkumar under Olympia Films.[4] The film was in post-production stage during the announcement in late-January 2025, after completing a 60-day long filming that took place in Kovilpatti and Chennai.[5] Sasikumar began dubbing for his portions on 2 February 2025.[6] Although My Lord was announced to mark Chaithra's debut in Tamil, 3BHK released before in 2025, marking My Lord her sophomore Tamil release.[7]

Abhinav Subramanian of The Times of India gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "My Lord lands enough of its jabs and keeps you curious. It just needed people as interesting as the mess they're stuck in."[14] Avinash Ramachandran of Cinema Express gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Despite the heavy themes of trafficking, donor list manipulation, and corruption flowing through every vein of our society, Raju Murugan treats the film with levity that reminds us of his very own Joker."[15] Anusha Sundar of OTTPlay gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "My Lord settles in an oddly confusing position while trying to be both a social commentary and a cinematic campaign to instil kindness among humans.[...] An earnest storytelling that needed more emotional (read: not sympathetic) depth."[16] Vishal Menon of The Hollywood Reporter India wrote that while the film began promisingly, it "ends with a loud message delivered without any cinematic subtlety", degenerating from a "biting satire to a generic drama".[17]
