Golden Star Ganesh is once again joining hands with director Srinivas Raju, following their successful collaboration in Krishnam Pranaya Sakhi. They are reuniting for an untitled romantic family drama that went on floors in August. Backed by Samruddhi Manjunath's KVC Productions, and presented by Viraat Sai Creations, the film has already completed 60 per cent of its shoot.

The project features two female leads, and while Devika Bhat has officially joined the cast, it is speculated that Malvika Sharma is set to make her Kannada debut with this film. Malvika, a lawyer-turned-model-turned-actor, has previously appeared in Telugu and Tamil films such as Nela Ticket (2018), Red (2021), Coffee with Kadhal (2022), Bhimaa (2024), and Harom Hara (2024). While her official entry is yet to be formally announced, she is expected to join the shoot this month.
