"There is a strict no-phone policy on sets for one week so that nothing gets leaked." Though not much has been revealed about the film, the title reveals much about the theme of the film. The film is likely to "open certain chapters about Indian bio-scientists and indigenous vaccines," the source said. The film will also pay tribute to the dedication of the medical fraternity and scientists during the uncertain times of the Covid-19 pandemic.
