It is directed by Bharat Bala, who is known for his evocative storytelling and cinematic style. The film’s music is composed by the musical genius of A.R. Rahman.

Talking about the film, director Bharat Bala said, “‘Mahasangam’ is Virtual Bharat and my tribute to the world's largest gathering of humanity, the Maha Kumbh Mela, that concluded today. This is a story that delves into complex layers of human emotions, and unfolds at an unprecedented gathering of pilgrims. This is a story that dives deep into a journey of redemption, inheritance and music, narrated through the three lead characters”.

He further mentioned, “I’m immensely proud and fortunate to direct this film, especially with the incredible talent backing it. From the legendary A.R. Rahman coming on board to do the music to an absolutely outstanding cast and with the blessings of Ajoy Chakroborty, a stalwart of Hindustani classical music, each one of them adds something special to this journey”.
