The story revolves around Dharma, a reclusive factory worker who isolates himself from others. His life takes a transformative turn when he encounters Charlie, a Labrador dog. Through their companionship, Dharma rediscovers his purpose and becomes a better version of himself.
The project was announced in September 2017 by Rakshit Shetty under Paramvah Studios, marking Kiranraj K’s directorial debut. The script was considered unique in Kannada cinema, with some scenes inspired by real-life events. Before production began in June 2018, dog trainer BC Pramod spent three weeks training three Labrador Retrievers to play Charlie, ensuring an authentic connection with the lead actor. Initially, Aravinnd Iyer was considered for the lead role, as his rugged appearance suited the character of a factory worker feared by his neighbors.
