When asked about the biggest challenge he had to face while perfecting the gait of the character, which had to depict the power of a don while retaining feminine elegance, the star said "I incorporated the (traits of) the character in my real life.

Written by Rajat Arora and directed by Ahmed Khan, the movie is all set to take us on an expedition. The music track of the film is given by A R Rahman.
