- Director Surya Kiran reportedly studied real-life election security protocols and past political scandals to shape the film's conflict.
- A key comedy sequence involving a stolen ballot box was filmed overnight at a real, decommissioned polling station in Vijayawada.
- The movie's climax required over 100 junior artists to portray a large political rally, all coordinated in a single day's shoot.
