Kodama Simham is a 1990 Indian Telugu-language revisionist adventure film directed by K. Murali Mohana Rao and produced by Kaikala Nageswara Rao.

Production

Kodama Simham was produced by Kaikala Nageswara Rao, under the presentation of his brother Kaikala Satyanarayana. Nageswara Rao decided to produce a cowboy film with Chiranjeevi in the lead role. Although Chiranjeevi was enthusiastic about the project, he cautioned that cowboy films would require a higher budget than typical productions. Undeterred, Nageswara Rao committed to the project and began searching for a director.

Nageswara Rao approached K. Murali Mohana Rao, a former classmate, to direct the film. After their collaboration on Sangharshana (1983), Chiranjeevi and K. Murali Mohana Rao reunited for Kodama Simham. The production team, comprising Nageswara Rao, Vijayendra Prasad, Siva Shakti Datta, and the Paruchuri Brothers, crafted a story that blended traditional cowboy themes with Indian cultural elements, resulting in a unique narrative tailored for Telu…

Chiranjeevi's casting as the cowboy protagonist was highly anticipated by his fans, who were eager to see him in a new avatar. Initially, Nadhiya was considered for one of the female leads, but due to her unavailability after her marriage, Hindi actress Sonam was cast instead. Radha and Vani Viswanath also played key roles in the film, completing the ensemble cast.

The production of Kodama Simham was ambitious, with filming taking place across five states, including locations in Madras, Ooty, Talakona, Mysore, Bangalore, Kochi, and Rajasthan. Elaborate sets were erected at Vauhini Studios in Madras to accommodate the film's cowboy theme and a special set was built in Chengalpattu, 64 kilometers from Madras, where a week of shooting was conducted.
