Production and Release
Before the release, Sachin commented that the movie was not a remake of Satte Pe Satta (1982), but instead was an adaptation of American film Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954).[3] He said that Satte Pe Satta had a crime angle, while this film is a musical comedy. About the title, Sachin said, "Satpute is a common Marathi surname, and since the film has seven brothers, I thought it was an apt name for the film."[2]
The film was released in theaters in Maharashtra on 18 April 2008.[2]
