Production
editKodi Ramakrishna, who earlier assisted Dasari Narayana Rao, made his directorial debut with this film. Initially, Kodi started a different project which he later shelved. Kodi took six months to complete the script. Kodi approached producer K. Raghava with a concept of a woman who is always suspicious her husband. Though Kodi had Chiranjeevi in mind for the lead role, Raghava insisted on Gollapudi playing Subbarao. Kodi had no choice but to agree.[2] When he brought Chiru's name to the producer, he thought for a moment and replied that if Chiranjeevi agrees, he's fine with the choice. Chiranjeevi was initially reluctant to play the role as he wanted Chandramohan to play the character, he liked the script still had doubts whether the audience would accept him in such a soft role, Kodi convinced him to play the character. Kodi's choice was proven right after the film's success.[2][3]
Most of the shooting was held in Palakollu and surroundings. Climax was shot in Chiranjeevi's house and also in Antervedipalem. The boat journey in the climax was shot on Antervedi, where River Godavari meets with the Bay of Bengal.[2]
