Director Roopa Rao ensured that the film Gantumoote captured her protagonists' life journeys. Despite the success of Gantumoote, Roopa has announced her next project, Gochara, clarifying that it is not a sequel but shares a connection with the previous film. Roopa's inspiration for Gochara stemmed from her personal solo travel experiences and the societal reactions to women traveling alone.
