Trivia
- The film's title 'Kala Pani' is a historical term for the Andaman Cellular Jail, but here it's reimagined as a mysterious, ability-granting drink.
- Director Poetik Justis is also a known music composer, and he created the entire synthwave-inspired soundtrack for the film.
- The animation style blends traditional 2D hand-drawn characters with 3D backgrounds to create Neo-Bombay's unique cyberpunk look.
- A minor character, a robotic street vendor, was voiced by a popular Indian stand-up comedian in a surprise uncredited cameo.
- The film's concept was partly inspired by real-world legends and rumors about mysterious substances sought by artists in India.
- It was originally planned as a live-action film, but the team switched to animation to better visualize the parallel universe.
- The fictional 'Neo-Bombay' skyline includes subtle architectural nods to real, unfinished or demolished buildings in Mumbai's history.
