One of the producers, Mahesh Talakad, suggested him to do the same film in Kannada with a fresh lead pair and that worked out after the lead actors were finalized. The film's initial title Minchagi Neenu Baralu was picked from a song of the film Gaalipata (2008) which also had Diganth as one of the lead protagonists.
