During the production of Shruthi (1990), Madras-based badminton player Vishwas came to Dwarakish's house in search of film opportunities. He was rechristened as Harshavardhan for the film while Maria was rechristened as Nithya. M. P. Shankar and Vajramuni were selected to play important roles. Part of the film was shot in Mysore.[2]
Film directors S. Siddalingaiah, Chandulal Jain and B. M. Venkatesh appreciated the film in a screening before its release. Since the film's producers and the people who watched the film during its premiere felt that the film would be a success, Dwarakish did not sell the film's rights to anyone. However, the film was an unexpected failure. Dwarakish cited casting newcomers as a possible reason for the film's failure but said in an interview that he appreciated working with them.[2]
