The film is directed by visionary filmmaker Sankalp Reddy and is being mounted on a massive scale by producer Srinivasaa Chitturi under the prestigious banner Srinivasaa Silver Screen, with Pavan Kumar presenting the project. Designed as one of the most ambitious ventures in Gopichand’s career, the film promises a spectacular cinematic experience filled with grandeur, action, and historical depth.

Adding to the film’s scale is an accomplished technical team, with ace cinematographer Soundar Rajan handling the visuals and crafting a grand cinematic tone.
