The film is now busy in post-production works and the recording of songs for the Telugu version is in progress in Chennai.

Speaking on the occasion hero Action King Arjun says, 'I am very happy to act in a rare combination of Bhartiraja and Nana Patekar. Bollywood music direction Himesh Reshmia tuned the songs for which Bhuvanachandra, Vennelakanti and Sahiti scripted songs. Tippu, Karthik, Matangi, Anuradha Sriram, Shalini and Suchitra were rendering the songs. Baratiraja who dished out several excellent pictures moulded this film in different way that his earlier films.'

Director Bharatiraja says, 'After a long time, I prepared a good film which could be a feast for the eyes of the Telugu audiences. The film would run in the backdrop of a murder mystery.'
