- The apartment set was built on a soundstage with movable walls to allow for dynamic camera angles during tense scenes.
- Director Ashutosh Nayak cited the 1990s horror classic 'Bhoot' as a key influence for the film's atmospheric tension.
- The movie was shot entirely at night to maintain a consistent eerie lighting and mood throughout production.
