== Production ==
[[Adurthi Subba Rao]] bought the Telugu remake rights of the Marathi film ''Thamb Laxmi Kunku Lavte'' (1968). While writing the screenplay of the remake, titled ''Undamma Bottu Pedata'', he retained the essence of the original's story with its climax, but made many other changes such as introducing new characters, mainly to suit the interests of Telugu-speaking audiences. Subba Rao also intended to direct the film and produce it under his banner Babu Movies, but the success of his [[Hindi]] directorial venture ''[[Milan (1967 film)|Milan]]'' (1967) led to him receiving more directorial offers from [[Bollywood]] producers; after accepting to direct ''Man Ka Meet'' (1969) for [[Sunil Dutt]]'s Ajanta Arts, he entrusted his protégé [[K. Viswanath]] with directing ''Undamma Bottu Pedata''. [[Mahadevshastri Joshi]], the writer of ''Thamb Laxmi Kunku Lavte'', was erroneously credited in the remake's title card as Madhav Shastri Joshi. The dialogues were written by N. R. Nandi, cinematography was handled by K. S. Ramakrishna and editing by Kotagiri Gopala Rao.<ref name="thehindu" />

== Soundtrack ==
The soundtrack was composed by [[K. V. Mahadevan]], with lyrics written by [[Devulapalli Krishnasastri]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Undamma Bottu Pedatha (1968)-Song_Booklet |url=https://indiancine.ma/documents/DPU/info |url-status=live |access-date=1 April 2020 |website=Indiancine.ma}}</ref>
