Based on a story by Sa Harish, the film follows the struggles of an honest, middle-class government employee who finds himself trapped in tough situations. “It’s a story about helplessness and dignity. It shows how far a father can go for his son, and how a family stands together through pain. Many people will see their own home in this film,” Suresh explains. To bring this emotional world alive, Suresh chose actors who could portray real and honest feelings. Manjunath Hegde plays the father while Renuka Bali plays the mother. “Their performances give the film its heartbeat,” he says.
Young actor Shrimanth plays the son, who is torn between fear and confusion. Suresh himself plays a character he describes as “cold and cruel,” a sharp turn from his well-known comic roles. “People know me for comedy. But this character is the opposite. Direction pushes you to break your own pattern.” The cinematography by Suryakant, edited by Mutturaj, features actors like Rekha Sagar, Vinya Shetty, and senior theatre artistes. It captures everyday life, the narrow lanes of homes, busy offices, a father’s quiet strength, and a son’s growing worry.
