The local residents and the government were exceptionally accommodating and supportive throughout our stay. It was almost as if they had warmly opened their doors to us, allowing us to film wherever the script required.

From the inception, our film incorporated a foreign sequence, and the choice to shoot in Azerbaijan was a revelation.” He says that this location has not been explored in Hindi cinema.
