Cast

Production

In April 2016, it was reported that after having watched the success of actor Dhanush's Tamil films Velaiilla Pattadhari and Visaranai, producer Rockline Venkatesh bought its remake rights in Kannada from Dhanush's Wunderbar Films and chose director Nanda Kishore to lead the former film.[6] In August 2016, actor V. Ravichandran's son Manoranjan Ravichandran was selected to play the lead role even before his first film Saheba released. It was reported that actress Amala Paul would reprise her role Shalini in Kannada version as well.[7] However, it was later reported that actress Rachita Ram was chosen for the same role.[8] Finally, Bollywood actress Mishti was finalized for the role which apparently made her excited since she considered herself to be an ardent fan of actor Dhanush.[9] After the first schedule in Bengaluru, the team headed to Mysore to film a montage song and few sequences.

Soundtrack

V. Harikrishna has composed the soundtrack and background music for the film. The soundtrack album consists of six songs. Lyrics for the tracks were written by Yogaraj Bhat and Pradyumna Narahalli. The audio was released by the actor Jaggesh along with KFPA President Muniratna who is also the distributor of the film.[10] The album was released by the Junglee Music audio banner.[11]
