The film also features Anurag Kashyap in a key role, along with Prakash Raj, Sunil, Zayn Marie Khan, Kamakshi Bhaskarla, and Atul Kulkarni in supporting parts. The project has been produced by Supriya Yarlagadda under the Annapurna Studios banner and was shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi.

The narrative follows a convict, Haridas "Hari," who seeks revenge against his former lover after a betrayal leads to his imprisonment. Upon release, he becomes entangled in a series of robberies, with his personal vendetta intersecting with a broader chain of criminal events.
