Cast

Production

Murali signed the film before completing his previous film Yashwanth (2003). [2] S. P. Balasubrahmanyam and Prakash Raj were initially considered to act in the film. [3]

Murali did all the stunts himself. [4] The first schedule was shot in Bangalore. [3] A month later, a chase sequence was also shot in Bangalore. [4] Hindi actor Akhilendra Mishra stars in the film. [5] In the climax, Deepu carries a bag containing 1000-rupee notes amounting up to three crore rupees. The makers of the film received backlash since the 1000-rupee note was worth only 2 rupees in the black market.[ citation needed ]

Soundtrack

The music is composed by R. P. Patnaik.
