Trivia

  • The film was shot in just 18 days, a tight schedule typical of many low-budget independent thrillers.
  • Director Goutham Raghavendra also wrote the story and screenplay, making it a very personal project.
  • The movie uses a non-linear narrative with three timelines to build its mystery, a complex structure for a debut.
  • It was primarily promoted through social media and digital platforms rather than large traditional campaigns.
  • The film's title 'R23' refers to a specific police station code within the story's fictional setting.
  • Despite its horror-thriller genres, the plot heavily revolves around courtroom drama and legal procedures.
  • The cinematographer, Karthik Muthukumar, used distinct color palettes to visually separate the three different timelines.
