(Trivia for trollers: 90% of them are ‘outsiders’) I rarely write notes before the release of a film but few films excite me, energise me and inspire me the way the process of this film has… Our collaborative producer and debutant director have been on the journey of this film for 4 years…the director did nothing else but put his head down and work relentlessly on his film – combating pandemic delays and other unforeseen circumstances.”
Karan further wrote, “I am inspired by the team of actors and technicians who gave the film and the team so much consistent support and love. One can never predict commercial success BUT what I can say with all my heart is that this film is one of Dharma’s proudest films! I say this as a filmmaker and an audience… I pray for the team that the audience is coloured in the colour of their passion. See you at the movies!”
