Production[edit]

The film was shot in Kudremukh for sixteen days.[4] T. S. Nagabharana and newcomer Apoorva Bharadwaj were cast in the lead roles.[1] The film is directed by B. Suresha.[5] The film is based on two real stories in Afghanistan and Bagalkot.[6] The film was produced by Saranya Nag, B. Suresha's wife who had previously produced his other directorial ventures.[6]

Release[edit]

The film was screened at Bengaluru International Film Festival.[7] A critic from The Hindu noted that "However, unlike his earlier works, including Devara Naadalli and Puttakkana Highway, which were termed too ‘verbose’, this film is more poetic and subtle".[3]
