As an actor, Vamshi has a limited filmography that showcases his talents. However, when he presented a story he wished to direct to Niveditha Shivarajkumar, the daughter of the renowned Hattrick Hero Shivarajkumar, she not only agreed to produce the project but also supported his decision to take on the lead role. Vamshi attributes this to Niveditha's primary focus on the script, which impressed her and instilled confidence in her that he could effectively bring his vision to life on screen.

In a conversation with Kannada Pichhar, Vamshi remarked that persuading Niveditha was quite straightforward for him. “The script and my presentation were precise, and that was what truly mattered to her—whether the script was compelling. She was captivated by the narrative and showed no concern for my identity or background. She believed that if I directed the film, I would excel, and she provided the necessary support for that,” he stated.

Regarding the themes explored in Firefly, Vamshi notes that everyone encounters painful experiences at various stages of life. “I aimed to depict this aspect of life on screen. When someone is feeling down, they often perceive everything around them as beautiful. They might wonder, ‘Why is everyone else so joyful?’ or ‘Why does the tree look so magnificent?’ My intention is to portray an imperfect individual in a stunning world, which is represented by the protagonist, Vicky,” he explains.

In a previous teaser that introduced the character, Vicky was portrayed as an intelligent Mathematics teacher who, paradoxically, led a life filled with misery and solitude. The narrative then delves into the various individuals he encounters throughout his sorrowful existence, including Rachana Inder, Sudharani, Achyuth Kumar, Sheetal Shetty, Chitkala Biradar, and several others. Shivarajkumar, who was last featured in Bhairathi Ranagal, makes a significant cameo in this film, a detail that was previously disclosed in a theatrical teaser and has now been incorporated into the trailer as well. The film is set to premiere in theaters on April 24, coinciding with the birth anniversary of the late Kannada film legend, Dr. Rajkumar.
