Directed by Puri Jagannadh, Liger is a joint production between the filmmaker's production house, Puri Connects and Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. The sports-based actioner, which has the tagline 'saala cross-breed' entered production in January, 2020, and has been delayed due to the pandemic. Earlier this year, Vijay Devarakonda refuted rumours about the film's straight-to-streaming release and ensured that the film will be releasing in theatres.

The film stars Ananya Panday as the female lead and also features Ramya Krishnan and Ronit Roy in supporting roles.
