Since moving to mumbai, puri Jagannath has remained there for three years. He began travelling back and forth between hyderabad and mumbai for "Liger" ever after iSmart Shankar's success. But because of Covid, he was confined to mumbai for a considerable amount of time. After that, he stayed there and kept working on Liger. Both mumbai and the USA served as the locations for the entire production. puri Jagannath and his crew effectively settled down in Mumbai.

It has been stated that the costs of puri Jagannath and his crew for travel, lodging, and other necessities have run into the millions of rupees, and these costs have been included in the film's budget. The expenses for the past three years were shockingly recorded at Rs 20 Cr. That translates to over Rs 50 lakh per month. Whatever it is, the tollywood community is in complete disbelief after learning about puri Jagannath and team's expense.

Many people on social media noted that the movie bears an uncanny resemblance to puri Jagan's own 2003 blockbuster Amma Nanna O tamil Ammayi (ANOTA). Similar to VD and ramya krishna in Liger, ravi teja stayed with a single mother named jayasudha in that movie. The boxing theme continued in that movie. ramya krishna is overdoing it in her act, just like Jayasudha. As a result, it is claimed that Liger is simply ANOTA updated. In his most recent interview, puri jagan made it clear that Liger is an entirely new movie and that he didn't borrow any ideas from his earlier works. According to him, Liger is a Pakka commercial action drama with a love narrative set against an MMA backdrop.
