Rajkumar, who previously produced films like Sangrama (1987), Yuddha Kaanda (1989) and Abhijith (1993).[1] Minal Patil, who made her debut with Paris Pranaya (2003), was supposed to make her debut with this film but was replaced by Vibha Rai.[2] Jayasudha returned to Kannada cinema after more than ten years during the production of this film; she was last seen in Nee Thanda Kanike (1985).[3]

T. N. Varkey, who wanted to produce the film sent Khushbu and she agreed to sell him her flat. Khushbu appeared in court after Varkey did not receive the flat because Shiva was using the flat as collateral security.[4]

The music was composed by Asif Ali.[5] The songs were released under the banner of Lahari Music.[1] The audio launch was held on 30 January 2010.[6]
