Although the film went on floors in October 2013, it had to face many legal troubles and halts during the making.[3] The filming had to be halted and it was reported that the film was dropped.[4] The film eventually underwent a revival and resumed the shoot towards the completion in early 2015.[5] However, the film had to settle for a record 139 edits from the censor board making it the first Kannada film with such large cuts.[6]

Soundtrack

The soundtrack is composed by Rajesh Ramanath. The audio was launched by director Ram Gopal Varma in Bangalore's Chamundeshwari Studios.[7] Varma was in town for shooting his film Killing Veerappan. The lyrics of the song "Bandi Bandi" came under the scrutiny of the censor board and the entire lyrics had to be changed for the final approval.
