Development

The film was conceived by writer Sanjeev K Jha who is from Bihar and is familiar with forced marriage practice in his native state. He was surprised to see the official data that said that more abduction happened in Bihar for the purpose of forced marriage than ransom in recent years.

He said in a statement, “We always knew such forced marriages happen, but we didn’t know the magnitude of it.” It was an eye-opener for him so he created a comic world and a love-story using these bizarre practices.

Music

The music of the film is composed by Tanishk Bagchi, Vishal Mishra, Sachet-Parampara, Ramji Gulati and Ashok Mastie while lyrics are written by Raj Shekhar, Rashmi Virag, Shabbir Ahmed, Kumaar, Tanishk Bagchi and Sachet-Parampara. Background music scored by Joel Crasto.
