Trivia

  • The production design team consulted folk artists from Rajasthan to create visual motifs for the grandmother's tales.
  • It was primarily shot in Gujarat and Rajasthan, but set details avoid naming specific real towns.
  • The film's score blends traditional 'bhajans' with electronic music to contrast past and present.
