Trivia

• The film's director Santosh Jagarlapudi is also a trained archer, which helped in making the sports scenes realistic.

• The movie was shot in actual locations used by the Sports Authority of India, including the archery training center in Hyderabad.
• It was inspired by the real-life struggles of Indian archers but is not a direct biopic of any single athlete.
• The film's climax was shot in a continuous long take to maintain tension during the final archery competition.
• Despite being an action drama, the movie had a limited theatrical release due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• The soundtrack was composed by S. Thaman, who incorporated traditional folk instruments to highlight the rural backdrop of the story.
