Trivia
- The film's director Jaya Prakash Kadali previously worked as an assistant director on the popular Telugu film 'Jersey'.
- The movie was primarily shot in a real, decommissioned college hostel in Hyderabad to create an authentic atmosphere.
- The plot uses the concept of a time loop, a theme rarely explored in mainstream Telugu thrillers before.
- The lead actor, a newcomer, underwent workshops to portray the repetitive, disoriented nature of being trapped in a loop.
- The film's score uses a recurring musical motif that subtly changes with each loop, mirroring the protagonist's journey.
- The title 'FIGMENT' hints at the blurred line between reality and imagination central to the story's mystery.
- To maintain suspense, the script was kept tightly guarded, with actors receiving only portions relevant to their scenes during shooting.
