Trivia

  • The film's title is a playful reference to the protagonist's name, not the American civil rights leader.
  • Director Puja Kolluru previously worked as an assistant director on the acclaimed Telugu film 'C/o Kancharapalem'.
  • The movie was shot primarily in and around a real village in Andhra Pradesh to capture authentic rural atmosphere.
  • Actor Sudhakar Komakula, who plays the hairdresser, learned basic barbering skills for his role.
  • The script was partly inspired by real-life stories of political maneuvering in small Indian villages.
  • Despite its 2023 release, the film had a very limited theatrical run and gained more attention through streaming platforms.
  • The comedy in the film often comes from the exaggerated tactics the political parties use to win the single vote.
