While the initial plan was to release the film in Malayalam and Tamil, the makers are now planning to dub the film in Telugu as well, given the immense popularity of Mammootty in the two Telugu-speaking states. Incidentally, the film has been shot with a different set of actors for its two versions. The Malayalam version will star Dharmajan Bolgatty, Joy Mathew, Neena Kurup, Sudhi Koppa, Hareesh Perumanna while the Tamil version will feature Manobala, Pandiraj, Rajendran, Stunt Silva and Sree Raam.

Street Lights features Mammootty a cop and will mark the directorial debut of ace cinematographer Shamdat Sainudeen, known for his work in films such as Oozham, Venicile Vyaapari and Avakai Biryani.
