The film was initially had a different title but reverted to the current title after the original title had been registered under someone else's name.[3] Mangalore-based dancer Prathana Prabhu made her debut with this film after the director saw one of her dances. She initially rejected the film but accepted after watching Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai (2010).[4] The muhurat shot of the film took place in May 2013.[3] The director, who worked as an assistant director for Singam (2010) only knew Tamil and had to have a Kannada translator.[4] Komal wrote some of his dialogues for the film.[5] The film was shot in a single schedule in Bangalore, Kasargod, Mysore, and Sakleshpur.[5][6] The film was reportedly in the top ten of a microblogging website.[7] The film finished production and was ready for release a hundred days after it entered production.[3]

Soundtrack

The music for the film was composed by Dharma Teja. An audio launch was held in Bangalore with Ambareesh in attendance.[8]

Reception

A critic from The Times of India wrote that "Komal has proved that he can shine in serious roles too with a neat performance. Prarthana is good. Akul Balaji is a waste. Music by Dharmateja and camera by Balabharani are average".[9]
