Production
The film was reported to be a family story and was shot at the Jayalakshmi Vilas mansion in the Manasagangotri campus of the University of Mysore. As of April 2002, filming took place for a month with shoots spanning from morning to evening, and Hamsalekha had composed five of the songs. The filming was to be completed by May 1st.[1] As the makers of the film kept the fact that it was a remake of the American film Our Hospitality (1923) under wraps, the film was still given a subsidy by the state government along with other non-remake films.[2][3][4]
