==Production==<br />
When [[Rockline Venkatesh]] decided to remake Malayalam film ''[[Darling Darling (2000 film)|Darling Darling]]'' in Kannada, he originally chose [[Dinesh Babu]] to direct the film. Babu who initially agreed to direct later pulled out from the venture after he got an offer from [[Usha Kiran Movies]]. This led Venkatesh to file a complaint against Babu at Kannada Producers Association which initially banned him but was later revoked after Babu agreed to pay penalty.<ref>{{Cite web |title=YET ANOTHER BLOW FOR DINESH BABOO |url=http://chitraloka.com/index.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010802233146/http://chitraloka.com/index.html |archive-date=2001-08-02 |access-date=2023-10-31 |website=[[Chitraloka.com]]}}</ref> He was replaced by [[Kishore Sarja]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=28 June 2009 |title=Director Kishore Sarja passes away |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/karnataka/2009/jun/28/director-kishore-sarja-passes-away-62793.html |access-date=2023-10-31 |website=[[The New Indian Express]] |archive-date=2023-11-01 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231101024831/https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/karnataka/2009/jun/28/director-kishore-sarja-passes-away-62793.html |url-status=live }}</ref><br />
