- Director Jaspal Singh Sandhu has said the story was inspired by real-life incidents of elderly couples facing extreme distress.
- Actor Sanjay Mishra, who plays the lead, reportedly lost weight and changed his posture to look older and more vulnerable for the role.
- The movie's title 'Vadh' translates to 'slaughter' in English, directly hinting at the film's violent turning point.
- Despite its thriller plot, the film deliberately uses a slow, atmospheric pace in the first half to build the characters' mundane reality.

- The production design carefully used muted colors and cramped spaces to visually reflect the protagonists' trapped life.
