Production

Bhootayyana Maga Ayyu was a 12-page short story in a compilation of stories by Gorur Ramaswamy Iyengar. Film director S. Siddalingaiah saw the potential of the story and wanted to adapt it into film. He went to Iyengar's house along with producer S. P. Varadappa to buy the rights to the story.

From the beginning Siddalingah decided not to included any big stars in the cast. After his two successful films (Doorada Betta and Bangarada Manushya) people around him attributed the success of his films to matinee idol Rajkumar, the star in both the films. He wanted to prove his ability as a director without the help of star value.

The film was shot extensively at Kalasapur, Dharmasthala, and Talakadu. This film was shot in Kalasapura village, near Chikmagalur town. Siddalingaiah had a particular attachment with this location. His other landmark movie Bangarada Manushya was also shot (partly) in the same village. The twenty-minute climax was an adaptation of one paragraph from the novel.
