Production

P. Vasu had plans for a sequel to Chandramukhi as early as September 2012. In January 2020, Vasu stated that he had completed the script for the sequel and a producer has come forward to produce the film. It was reported that Raghava Lawrence would play main role in the film, which was confirmed in April by himself via Twitter, where also stated the film is produced by Sun Pictures.

Kangana Ranaut met Vasu to discuss another film. While inquiring Vasu about who he cast for the role of Chandramukhi, Vasu told her that no one had been cast yet and Ranaut asked Vasu if she could play the role. Ranaut said this was the first time she ever asked for a role, rather than being approached for one.

Principal photography commenced in July 2022 in Mysore, and wrapped up the first schedule in August. In March 2023, Ranaut joined the team to shoot the climax song, which she was seen rehearsing in January, and wrapped up her portions the same month. Radhika had wrapped her portions in May. In June, the team had announced that principal photography wrapped. A song sequence was later shot in August, marking the conclusion of filming.

In June, the team announced that the film is releasing on Ganesh Chaturthi. Lawrence started dubbing his portions in July.
