Production

Director Krish completed his graduate studies in the United States and returned to India with the sole intention of becoming a filmmaker. Because his parents were not supportive, he started an education consulting firm. Meanwhile, he worked as an assistant to cinematographer-turned-director, Rasool Ellore, who directed Okariki Okaru (2003) and Bhageeratha (2005).

Initially, he wanted to make this story in Hindi. With Aaj Jeeyenge as the title, one of his ideas was to picturise the story starting in Delhi, travelling through Bihar, and ending the film's climax in Chhattisgarh. On an occasion, he met Nagaraju Gandham, a Nandi Award-winning theatre writer. With Gandham, he prepared the script.

The primary theme of the film is self-discovery. Noting that the film is inspired from The Motorcycle Diaries (2004), Sify wrote about the storyline: "A spoiled rich brat realizing the social responsibility by taking an unusual journey." Rediff.com's Aditya Vardhan also noted its similarities with The Motorcycle Diaries. He added, "Krish weaves his own story around the basic theme and takes us on a journey capturing the mood of the countryside."
