Subash Chandra, known for his work with MR Productions on several acclaimed short films, is making his directorial debut with this venture.

Nidhi Pradeep plays the lead actress in this film, which has veteran actor Jagapathi Babu essaying a key role.

The makers unveiled the film's title as ’Godari Gattupaina’, a name that has already gained popularity, thanks to the hit song from ‘Sankranthiki Vasthunnam’, last year in the month of April.

At the time of unveiling the title, the director of the film had said, "One will be able to experience the same kind of peace that one enjoys when one sits and spends time with friends on the serene banks of the river Godavari on a breezy evening when they watch our film. 'Godari Gattupaina’ will be a film that will help you relax. It will be full of fun with beautiful emotions."

“Set in the backdrop of Velpuru, Relangi, and Bhimavaram of the Godavari districts, our pure and heartfelt film has been titled ‘Godari Gattupaina’. The picturesque landscapes of the West Godavari region will play a significant role in enhancing the film's visual appeal,” he had added.

The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Rajeev Kanakala, Laila, Devi Prasad, Harshavardhan, Sudarshan, Rajkumar Kasireddy, Viva Raghav, and Rohit Krishna Varma, all of whom play pivotal roles in the film.

On the technical front, the film brings together a talented team. Sai Santosh is the cinematographer of the film, which has music by Naga Vamshi Krishna. Anil Kumar P is the editor and Nagarjuna Thallapalli is the sound designer.
