The launch of the trailer was held at the Shankar Nag Chitramandira in Bengaluru on Thursday. Speaking at the launch, Rakshit, who is the lead actor in the film, revealed that he had a single scene in mind before writing the film — his grand entry. “We began writing Avane Srimannarayana even before Kirik Party and today, I am happy that we are releasing the film just like how I wanted to make it,” Rakshit says. The idea of a grand entry is in stark contrast to Rakshit’s filmography so far. He has typically portrayed roles almost contrary to mass-appeal constructs.
