Production

Srujan Lokesh, widely known for Majaa Talkies, announced GST as his directorial debut in late 2025, positioning it as a family-friendly comedy-thriller with a playful twist on the ghost genre ("ghosts in trouble rather than humans"). The film is produced by N. Sandesh under Sandesh Productions with Lokesh Productions as co-banner.

Lokesh leads the ensemble as Lucky, pairing with Rajani Bharadwaj. The supporting cast includes veteran Girija Lokesh, Sharath Lohitashwa, Vinaya Prasad, Shobhraj, Tabla Nani, Ravishankar Gowda, Girish Shivanna, and social-media personality Niveditha Gowda. Notably, three generations of the Lokesh family — Girija Lokesh, Srujan, and Sukruth Srujan Lokesh—appear in the film, which Srujan highlighted as a personal milestone.

The official trailer was launched mid-November 2025, with Real Star Upendra unveiling the trailer and Priyanka Upendra releasing a song promo at a high-profile event. Public TV segments promoted the film's family-friendly angle, and Times of India's ETimes carried the trailer. The film's tagline "Ghost in Trouble" was prominently used across digital campaigns.
