Development
Jandhyala had good relations with make-up man, producer Jayakrishna, from early of his career. When Jandhyala turned to a director from his screen-writing and dialogue-writing career, Jayakrishna used to visit his shooting regularly. Once Jandhyala narrated the story-line to Jayakrishna. When Keshavarao(then film distributor) asked to help him to find a better script and assist him in his trials to produce movies, Jayakrishna recommended him doing a movie with Jandhyala. After their initial discussions about the script and budget matters movie started eventually.[1]

Jandhyala selected Pradeep for one of the four roles, to whom Jandhyala continued offering roles in every of the films directed by him till then from directional debut Mudda Mandaram. After this film Pradeep stopped his career as film actor and later he has done many roles in Television serials. For other three roles, Jandhyala selected Naresh, Rajesh and Subhakar. Subhakar later became famous by his role in Mayuri. Rajesh who made his debut as hero in Jandhyala directional movie "Nelavanka", and is brother of popular comedy actress Sri Lakshmi, has been selected to another hero character.
