Trivia

• The film's director, Shashanka Ghosh, is known for comedies like 'Veere Di Wedding', making this dark thriller a genre shift.
• Alaya F performed her own underwater scenes for the film, which required special training and preparation.
• The movie's title character, Freddy, shares his last name 'Ginwala' with a famous Indian Parsi family, hinting at his community background.
• Much of the film was shot in a single primary location, Freddy's apartment and dental clinic, to create a claustrophobic feel.
• The screenplay was reportedly in development for several years before finding its lead actor, Kartik Aaryan.
• The film uses the color green prominently in its sets and lighting to symbolize envy, sickness, and the character's twisted mind.
• Despite being a thriller, the film includes a romantic song sequence shot in the scenic but chilly locations of Kashmir.
