Production The film featured 36 newcomers including Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry's son Raja. Bubbly was renamed Ishana by Teja although officially she is unnamed by her family due to astrological reasons. Initially Chennai-based Ilaiyaraaja was to compose the music but after Teja fell sick and couldn't shift between cities, he opted for Hyderabad-based Chakri. The film was shot in 60 days in Bangalore, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Rajasthan. The film was simultaneously shot in Tamil as Manase Manase, but that version was never released.

Reception The film was released on 26 October 2008. A critic from Rediff.com rated the film two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "Director Teja seems to have got embroiled in the stereotypical pattern of filmmaking. Gone is the freshness associated with his films (as his earlier films Chitram and Jayam reflect). One can't help but wonder if he has lost his touch". A critic from IANS rated the film one out of five and wrote that "Keka is a movie three years too late".
