Vijayaendra Prasad penned story while Paruchuri brothers came with powerful dialogues. Vijayendra Prasad named the story as Samara Simham but Paruchuri brothers did not agree.

Paruchuri Gopala Krishna revealed the reason saying, “Simham vetadutundi... Samara Simha Reddy aite vadilestadu” and convinced the makers. At first producer, Chengala Venkataravo too did not agree for the title. However, Paruchuri brothers convinced him and got the film named as Samara Simha Reddy.
