Anecdotes

Karthikeya is a 2014 Indian Telugu-language mystery thriller film written and directed by Chandoo Mondeti.

The music was composed by Shekar Chandra, while Karthik Ghattamaneni handled the cinematography.

Production

After Swamy Ra Ra, Nikhil Siddhartha signed his next film to be directed by his friend Chandoo Mondeti in which he was supposed to play "a smart, well educated, suave young man studying MBBS". Venkat Srinivas agreed to produce the film under his Magnus Cine Prime banner. Swati Reddy was signed as the lead actress considering her popularity in Tamil and she also appeared in Swamy Ra Ra.

Nikhil noted in an interview, "When I was young, films like Bhairava Dweepam and Aditya 369 fascinated me. Later I liked watching Sherlock Holmes. That character was curious and inquisitive. Karthikeya is all about mystery and adventure; it’s a light-hearted subject." For his role, Nikhil had to gain 10 kgs weight. His research for the role involved spending time with medical students and doctors before the shooting.

The film was launched on 10 June 2013 in Hyderabad with N. Lingusamy, Sudheer Varma and Parasuram in attendance. The makers also unveiled the title and film's logo the same day during the launch, with the team further announced that majority of the film will be shot in Visakhapatnam, Araku, and Kumararama temple in Samarlakota in Andhra Pradesh.

The film's second schedule took place on 4 August and was wrapped up by 29 August 2013, with scenes on the lead pair including two songs were shot. In early October 2014, the film was shot in and around Kumbakonam including a Subramanya Swamy temple there. By then 70% of the film's shoot was wrapped up. The film's final schedule commenced on 15 November 2013 on whose completion the film's shoot was expected to end.
