Initially requested by the Censor Board to remove some scenes for approval, it was not given authorisation because director Prasanna Vithange refused to comply with the Censor Board’s request. Recently, a newly appointed Censor Board cleared the film for public viewing under ‘More suitable for adults’ rating without any censorship. 

Indian actress Anjali Patil and theatre veteran Shyam Fernando star in ‘Oba Nathuwa Oba Ekka’ (With You, Without You). Based on a novella by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, it was written and directed by Prasanna Vithanage. M.D. Mahindapala (Cinematographer), A. Sreekar Prasad (Editor), Lakshman Joseph De Saram (Music Composer), Tapas Nayak (Sound Designer) and Rob Nevis (Production Designer) have contributed to Oba Nathuwa Oba Ekka. Daminda D. Madawala is the Assistant Director and Ebert Wijesinghe handled the make-up. Kalpana Ariyawansa and Vindana Ariyawansa contributed as Line Producers. 

A co-production between India and Sri Lanka, Lasantha Nawarathna and Mohamed Adamaly produced Oba Nathuwa Oba Ekka (With You, Without You). Rahul Roy, Iranthi Abeysinghe, Sunil Fonseka and Nadira Adamaly joined as The Executive Producers.
