Pawan Kalyan was supposed to star in the Telugu film Mirapakaya. The actor listened to the script and was particularly excited with the interval episode, and gave his nod for the project. However, the project didn’t materialise due to various reasons.
Later, Ravi Teja called Harish to ask him whether the director had any story. The director then narrated the script of Mirapakaya and the rest is history.
