Speaking at the launch, Abir said, I always wondered why these types of films are not being made. Even in the film, we raised the question on whether too much rooting to realism is depriving us of fantasy.
We have tried to make something different through this film.

Keeping the suspense on her character intact, Shruti said, This film and the genre are completely new. I am just grateful for being a part of the cast. Tashi, my character, is a mystery.
