The film has been directed by Anurag Kashyap and co-stars Rahul Bhat.

"The screening went well. We were given a standing ovation," Rahul tells Subhash K Jha. "It seemed unreal to me. It has been a long journey for a Kashmiri boy to reach from those traumatic times of migration till here."

"I can't explain how thankful I am to God who has finally shown me these good times. To be standing in this posh theatre where some of the greatest actors have been feted... for any actor, this is the moment and I can’t be grateful enough. I hope this is the just the beginning for me."
