On Monday, actress Yami Gautam expressed confidence in both the cast and the creators of the film, stating "full faith" in the film finding favour with the audience. Revealing that the makers were told that such films may not find too many takers, the actor said, "We were told that this film may not find success at the box office as viewers do not appreciate such subjects."

In the movie, Yami Gautam portrays the role of intelligence officer Zooni Haksar. The film is set against the backdrop of Jammu and Kashmir and revolves around the significant event of the revocation of Article 370, which granted special status to the region. On August 5, 2019, the Union Government made the decision to revoke Article 370.


"We had full faith in the film striking the right chord and finding favour with the audience. A common refrain in the congratulatory messages that I have been receiving since our film hit theatres is that the youth should watch it as there's no propaganda in it," Yami Gautam said.

Directed by Aditya Suhas Jambhale, the movie features Priyamani, Arun Govil, and Kiran Karmarkar in significant roles.
Aditya Dhar, the filmmaker and husband of Yami, who produced this film, said, “We could only work hard for this film, which we did. We knew once the film arrived in theatres, we wouldn't have any control over how it was received by the viewers. There wasn't much we could do. We just submitted ourselves to the audience and hoped for the best. We knew it was the audience, and the audience alone, who could give our film its due. Our film had characters based on real-life people, who worked tirelessly for the abrogation of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir. The idea was to narrate their struggles in real life and bring it to viewers through the audio-visual medium. However, we never imagined our film getting such a response and receiving so much love from viewers.”
