In the game of love, Khela (a Sanskrit word—not to be confused with the Hindi word Kela, which means banana), the protagonist says to his lover: “Priti andare Samudra, Avale Nanage Daridra.” You can imagine to what extent the protagonist has suffered at the hands of the heroine in this film!

Sangeetha Bhat plays a special role in the film. On World Prostitute Day, the song Punyathgitthi, sung by Velmurugan, penned by Pramod Jois, and composed by the talented M.S. Thyagaraj, was screened at MMB Legacy.

This marks the debut production and direction of Bharat VJ, son of four-film director Vishnukanth. In the profession of dealing in superbikes, Bharat VJ has chosen five tunes composed by M.S. Thyagaraj out of a total of twelve. One of the songs was shot in Uttarakhand.

Vihan Prabhanjan plays the protagonist and expressed his gratitude for finding the right producer at the start of his career. His character carries three different shades—love, emotion, and friendship.

Ashika Rao plays a character with both negative and positive shades, and the film also includes a cute love story. She has previously acted in two plays at Ninasam in Shivamogga.

The very talented music composer M.S. Thyagaraj shared that the sudden change of two finalized songs initially shocked him. However, after careful selection, five of his twelve compositions were approved for the film.

Swamy of Mysuru handled the cinematography. Yuva, who plays the second lead in the film, also spoke on the occasion.
