Production

[edit]

Krishna Vamsi traveled to Visakhapatnam to scout locations for a film starring Nagarjuna, which would eventually become Samudram (1999). Initially facing comparisons to his earlier work, Gulabi (1995), Vamsi decided to overhaul the script by removing elements of violence. Drawing inspiration from Hindi films Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! (1994) and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), he adapted the script to better suit Telugu audiences. Vamsi presented the revised script to Nagarjuna during the shoot of Ramudochadu (1996), and Nagarjuna agreed to the project after a brief, three-minute narration.[7]

Although Meena was initially considered for the role eventually played by Tabu, scheduling conflicts prevented her from accepting the role. Consequently, the crew searched for other options and ultimately finalized Tabu.[8]
