It is the third iinstalment in the Singam film series and is the sequel to Singam II (2013). The film follows Duraisingam, the deputy commissioner in Visakhapatnam, who battles against a criminal operation dealing in deadly toxic waste.
The film was officially announced in October 2014 under the initial official title S3, the short-term for Singam 3; however, it was later changed to Si3 to exploit the Tamil Nadu Government's rule of entertainment tax exemption for films titled in Tamil. Principal photography commenced in January 2016. It was shot for the most part in Visakhapatnam. The film has music composed by Harris Jayaraj, cinematography handled by Priyan and editing by V. T.
