Production

The story was originally conceived by director Chandra Sekhar Yeleti. He worked with his assistant Radha Krishna Kumar to develop the script but the idea was dropped after they failed to give it a conclusion. Kumar borrowed the storyline from Yeleti, and worked on it for eighteen years to give the story a satisfactory ending. He narrated the script to actor Prabhas while he was shooting for the Baahubali series (2015–17).

Kumar initially wanted to set the story in the backdrop of a hill station in India. However, the story was moved to Europe following Prabhas' suggestion. The romantic drama takes place in 1970's Europe. Kumar revealed that the protagonist Vikramaditya's character is inspired by real life European palmist Cheiro.

The film was formally launched on 5 September 2018 in Hyderabad, tentatively titled as Prabhas 20. Pooja Hegde was cast opposite Prabhas. Hegde called the film a "fresh and mature love story". Veteran actress Bhagyashree is cast in a crucial role in the film. Several titles including Jaan (transl. Life) and O Dear were considered for the film, before finalising Radhe Shyam which symbolises love between Hindu god Krishna and goddess Radha.

The film is shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi languages. Principal photography commenced on 6 October 2018.
