The event started with puja performed by EVV Satyanarayana. Speaking on the occasion, presenter Rajamouli said, 'Chandu and me used to direct ads for some government schemes. At that time, Raghavendra Rao told us to learn techniques from Bujji (Vara Mullapudi). Like that, we came in contact with each other. The story narrated by Vara last year inspired me. I thought of directing that film but changed my decision as it was the subject of Vara. The film had several commercial elements and both the heroes' roles would compete with each other. There is a lot of scope for performance for both of them. Generally, a film which had good amount of suspense will not have scope for sentiment. But this film has both the sentiment and suspense elements.'

Moreover the subject had got perfect and suitable artistes. The first schedule would be from June 25. The second schedule would begin in Vizag from July 10. There are four songs which will be purely situational.'

Dialogue writer Harshavardhan said, 'I am lucky to write dialogues for a good subject.' When Chandrasekhar Yeleti said, he liked the story very much, I agreed to script the screenplay.'
