The core plot was partially inspired by John Woo's 1997 American film Face/Off, and revolves around two strangers, Satya and Charan. The film was made on a budget of ₹35 crore, and was officially launched on 9 December 2011. Principal photography began on 27 April 2012 and lasted until 22 July 2013.

Yevadu was released on 12 January 2014 during the festival of Sankranthi after several delays. It received positive reviews from critics, and was commercially successful; it grossed more than ₹47 crore and collected a distributor share of ₹20 crore, becoming one of the highest grossing Telugu films of 2014.
