The film stars Manchu Manoj and Regina Cassandra in the lead roles.

This marks the second time that Dasaradh and Manoj have worked together, after their first film Sri in 2005.

Manoj stated that the role would be a departure from his typical "rugged" roles and that "For the first time, I am playing an out and out uber cool stylish look in this film."

Dasaradh has stated that the film would be a "thrilling love story" and "concept-oriented".

Plans to create the film were announced in May 2015 and Manchu Manoj was attached to the film, then titled "Production No 2"

The film's name was later titled Shourya and actress Regina Cassandra was confirmed as the movie's lead actress.

Filming commenced later that year and in November about 75% of the film's shooting was completed.

The following month digital posters were released for the film and the film was expected to release in January 2016. This release date was pushed back, as filming continued through January.

On 1 February 2016 the film's music received an audio release and the filming for Shourya was announced to be nearing completion.

Music for the film was composed by K Veda.
