Ashwath, Leelavathi and Sampath playing supporting roles. The film, along with Mooruvare Vajragalu was Rajkumar's last movie in black-and-white (though it did have a few sequences in colour).

This was the last film where Rajkumar and Bharathi were seen together.[1] It was also Rajkumar's last collaboration with Siddalingaiah[2]. This is also the only Kannada movie where popular singer Asha Bhonsle has lent her voice for a song and dance number. The movie saw a modest theatrical run.[3]
