This is director Sekhar Kammula's most ambitious film yet, with a budget exceeding ₹100 crore. According to him, Kuberaa is a socio-political thriller where a billionaire capitalist (Jim Sarbh) and a beggar (Dhanush) are brought into conflict through a middle-class man (Nagarjuna). “It’s a story about how survival instincts and selfish motives clash across three economic strata.” Nagarjuna has further stated that he plays a CBI officer in the movie. "My character finds itself in the midst of a conflict, whether to do bad or good," stated Nagarjuna.
