Sukumar and Allu Arjun last worked together in 2009 in Arya 2. Sukumar was all set to make a film with Mahesh Babu, but the project was dropped over creative differences between the two. The producer and Sukumar then started this project with Allu Arjun.
The film was originally planned to release on April 13 but due to the second wave of Covid had to be postponed. It was only in May that it was announced that there would be two parts to the film.
