With Vishnu Manchu playing the lead role, the film also features actors like Mohan Babu, R. Sarathkumar, Arpit Ranka, Rahul Madhav, Devaraj, Mukesh Rishi, Brahmanandam, Preity Mukhundhan, and many more in pivotal roles.
In addition, the film includes cameo appearances by renowned actors such as Mohanlal, Prabhas, Kajal Aggarwal, and Akshay Kumar (marking his Telugu debut).
