"Dulquer and Mrunal have a wonderful on-screen chemistry and this reflects perfectly on camera. This does not feel like Mrunal's Telugu debut as she has brilliantly adapted to the unit's working style and shooting patterns. The audience is going to have a great time watching her in this unique story for sure."
Helmed by Hanu Raghavapudi, it is Dulquer’s second film in Telugu after the 2018 runway hit, Mahanati. Presented by Vyjayanthi Movies, Swapna Dutt and Priyanka Dutt are bankrolling the project. Vishal Chandrasekhar is the music composer.

Also, Mrunal has director Umesh Shukla's Aankh Micholi and Raja Menon's 'Pippa' in the pipeline.
On the other hand, Dulquer Salmaan will be next seen in 'Hey Sinamika.' Starring Dulquer, Aditi Rao Hydari and Kajal Aggarwal, the film is slated to be released in theatres on February 25, 2022. The film borrows its title from Mani Ratnam's hit Tamil romantic comedy "O Kadhal Kanmani" (2015), which starred Salmaan and Nithya Menen.
