Prior to working on the film, he had acted in theatre shows, and readied himself to play three different avatars in the film by losing 15 kilograms. Sanam Shetty, who had appeared in other regional South Indian films, made her first appearance in a Kannada-language project through 'Atharva'. The film was shot for 65 days starting in October 2017 in areas including Bengaluru, Mangaluru, Chickmagaluru, Mandya, and Kanakapura.
