Director Roopa Rao was focused on capturing the life's journey of her protagonists in her acclaimed film Gantumoote. Despite the lingering impact of the film on fans, Roopa announced her upcoming project titled Gochara, clarifying that it is not a sequel to Gantumoote, but does have a connection to it. The story revolves around a woman's solo travel, inspired by Roopa's own existential ponderings. She aims to challenge societal perceptions, particularly how men view women traveling alone, through the experiences of her protagonist as she explores various parts of India. Roopa hopes that Gochara will empower women viewers and challenge men's perspectives.
