Loosely based on the life of Mr Thomas Beatie, a trans man who hit the news back in the day for birthing his children, Mr Pregnant aims to talk about the importance of motherhood and the necessity for men to empathise with women more, through the format of a love story with elements of comedy and action. 

The film also stars Suhasini Maniratnam, Raja Rabindra, Brahmaji and Harsha in supporting roles. Mr Pregnant is produced by Appireddy and Ravireddy Sajjala. Shravan Bharadwaj is the music composer of the film, with cinematography by Nizar Shafi and editing by Prawin Pudi.
