The film was launched officially in April 2015.[1] Sonarika Bhadoria was signed in as a lead actress in May 2015.[2][3]
"The song is a very important factor in the film and I felt that it would be good move to have a star like Tamannaah Bhatia. The song comes when the hero and his friends are having a bachelor party right after his marriage is fixed. It would be weird if a guy dances with another girl, soon after his marriage is fixed. But here, she is telling him how he needs to be after marriage and so, we felt the concept is totally legit."
—Director Bhimaneni Srinivasa Rao about the casting and theme of the special song "Bachelor Babu".[4][5]
Later in last October 2015, actress Tamannaah Bhatia was signed in to make a performance in the special song.[6] Filming of this song was completed by mid November 2015[7] and it was reported that she charged half of her remuneration to appear in the movie.[8] That song, titled "Bachelor Babu" was made on a budget of ₹2.25 crore (US$270,000).[5] The film's title was announced as Speedunnodu in December 2015.[9]
