Coming back to the film Bagheera, it includes an ensemble cast. Besides Sriimurali, these include Rukmini Vasanth, Prakash Raj, Achyuth Kumar, Sudha Rani, Ramachandra Raju, and others.
The film is bankrolled under Hombale Films, and the storyline is crafted by Prashanth Neel. Its cinematography is done by Arjun Shetty, while B Ajaneesh Loknath is its music director.
As of November 14, 2024, the film wound up with a box office collection of Rs. 29 crore worldwide. Emerging as a clean hit, Bagheera, despite being a small-budget film, crossed over Rs. 16 crores in India.
