Trivia
- The film's abandoned radio station set was built inside a real decommissioned station in Hyderabad.
- Director Koushik Pegallapati cited the 1990s Telugu horror-comedy 'Ammoru' as a key visual influence.
- The sound design uses actual vintage radio static and frequency sweeps recorded from old equipment.
- A key comedy scene references the popular Telugu TV show 'Jabardasth' through a character's impersonation.
- It was shot in a brisk 42-day schedule, partly to maintain a tense atmosphere on set.
- The ghost's visual effect was achieved with practical makeup and minimal CGI for a raw look.
- This was the first major Telugu film to blend a ghost tour premise with a radio station setting.
