Development

The first news about the film was announced by actor Sri Murali in his twitter account in August 2014. Fresh from the success of his previous venture Ugramm (2014), Murali announced that his next venture would be titled as "Rathaavara" and more details of the film would be revealed in the 150th day celebrations of Ugramm.[3] He also released the first look for the film on the social networking site on his birthday.[4] The film was labelled as an action thriller and would be directed by Chandrashekar Bandiyappa.

Casting

After signing Murali for the lead protagonist role, the makers roped in actress Rachita Ram who was busy shooting for Ranna.[5] P. Ravi Shankar was roped in to play the main antagonist role.[6]

Filming

Although the initial reports said the filming to start by October 2014, the actual rolling of the film commenced from December 2014. With the first look of the film out on 17 December 2014, the launch was made a low-key affair with the film's cast and crew members only. The team shot for the film at a brisk pace in and around Mysore. An action sequence was shot at the tourist destination Srirangapatna.[7] Later, it was reported that actor Sri Murali would sing for a track in the film.[8] The climax portions of the film commenced in April 2015 with the actor claiming it to be one of his toughest climaxes shot ever. It was reported that he had to be underwater for close to 12 hours for shooting the climax portions.[9]

Dharma Vish has composed the soundtrack and score for the film. The soundtrack consists of 5 songs out of which one has been sung by actor Sri Murali and penned by Yogaraj Bhat.[10] Other lyricist names featured are Kaviraj, Jayanth Kaikini, V. Nagendra Prasad and K. Kalyan.
