Cast edit

Production edit

The film began production in early 2011.[1] The shooting for the film was finished by May of 2012.[2] Rao was not paid for the film because of Suresh's financial situation after Excuse Me (2003).[3] The film was Giriraj's first film but released after Jatta (2013).[4][5]

Release and reception edit

The film was released on 6 December 2013, the same day as B3 also starring Poonacha.[6][7]

A critic from The Times of India said that "With poor script, confusing narration, bad editing that does not link sequences properly, too many characters, turns and twists, director Giriraj has reduced it to a cock and bull story".[8] Shyam Prasad S of Bangalore Mirror said that "The biggest problem with this film is that the story isn’t believable".[9]
