Production

It is the first independent film of Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award winning writer Sreebala K Menon who was the former associate of director Sathyan Anthikad in five of his films.{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news/Nikhila-all-praise-for-Dileep/articleshow/47935412.cms |title=Nikhila all praise for Dileep|publisher=Times of India |date=2015-07-04 |accessdate=2015-07-14}} Sreebala, initially written the script, started it as the plot for a short story, but later weaved into a feature film with some changes. About the media-oriented theme, Sreebala says, "In Malayalam we have seen stories revolving around the life of reporters, the risks they take and the drama happening, both in the print and visual media. But what happens behind the camera, the normal life of news presenters, who in themselves are celebrities these days, are not explored much. Love 24x7 delves into those things."{{cite news|author1=Aswathy K|title=Love on Air|url=http://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/malayalam/Love-on-Air/2015/07/14/article2918676.ece|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150724233743/http://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/malayalam/Love-on-Air/2015/07/14/article2918676.ece|url-status=dead|archive-date=24 July 2015|accessdate=18 July 2015|agency=The New Indian Express|date=14 July 2015}}
