सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The phrase is iconic in the context of 'Finos Film', the studio that defined Greek cinema. To 'do a production' back then meant creating the glamorous musicals Greeks still watch today. Greeks take immense pride in 'home production' (δική μας παραγωγή). If you are offered olive oil, the host will often say it's from their own 'production'. In the burgeoning Greek tech and startup scene, 'κάνω μια παραγωγή' is often replaced by the English 'κάνω launch' or 'τρέχω ένα πρότζεκτ', showing the influence of English on professional Greek. Athens has more theaters than almost any other city in the world. 'Κάνω μια παραγωγή' is a phrase heard in every cafe in Exarcheia or Psirri where artists gather.

Unless you are a factory owner, don't say you are 'doing a production' of moussaka. It sounds weird!
