Director Navjyot Bandiwadekar announced the film in November 2022 on his Instagram, sharing a photo of himself with Dutta and Pradhan. [12] Additionally, a more than one-minute-long title and cast announcement video was released on YouTube.

Bhave and Deo reunited after over twenty years, having last appeared together in the successful 1998 political thriller film Sarkarnama. [17] [18] This film also marks Dutta's debut in Marathi cinema. [19] [20] Bandiwadekar mentioned that casting for the film was challenging due to bringing together such prominent names from the industry.
