    • Production

    Krishnam Raju was inspired by Ben-Hur (1959) and wanted to produce a film just like it. As such, this film was influenced by the film "Ben-Hur". For songs recording, the unit went to tribal areas and composed their tunes and rhythms as songs for the film. In fact, the song "Enniyallo" was based on the research they had done.
