- The film's title 'Gammathu' is a Telugu slang word meaning 'trick' or 'deception,' reflecting the plot's central theme of mistaken identity.
- Director Aswwani Sri Krisshna cited the Hollywood thriller 'Perfume: The Story of a Murderer' as a key inspiration for the protagonist's motivation.
- The movie was primarily shot in and around Visakhapatnam, using real urban locations to create a gritty, authentic atmosphere.
- Actor Sumanth Shailendra, who plays Bavaji, reportedly studied mannerisms of scientists and obsessive characters to prepare for his role.
- The film's background score was composed by newcomer Suresh Bobbili, who used unconventional sounds to heighten the thriller's tension.
- Despite being a thriller, the script includes subtle social commentary on how society quickly labels outsiders as suspects.
- The climax sequence was filmed over 12 nights in a single location to maintain continuity and a specific moody lighting setup.
