"Temper" has been produced by Bandla Ganesh Babu, who has earlier produced Sachiin Joshi's last outing "Nee Jathaga Nenundali", a remake of "Aashiqui 2".

It is reported that Ganesh had taken financial help during the production of some of his recent ventures. Since he could not repay the money, he has given the rights of "Temper" to Sachiin, in lieu of the debt.

"Sachin has funded money to Bandla Ganesh for Ram Charan-starrer Govindudu Andarivadele and even Sachin splurged a bomb for his Telugu remake of Aashiqui 2 to Ganesh. However, Ganesh failed to return the finance amount on time leaving Sachin furious," Gulte quoted a source as saying.
