Trivia

• The film's title 'Urf Ghanta' plays on words, as 'Urf' means 'also known as' and 'Ghanta' is a slang term for something nonsensical.
• Director Aayush Saxena also wrote the screenplay and composed the film's background score himself.
• The movie was shot entirely in real locations in Mumbai, giving it a very authentic, local feel.
• It was one of the first Indian films to be released directly on an OTT platform during the pandemic in 2021.
• The lead actor, who plays Ghanteshwar, had to gain a significant amount of weight to look the part of a middle-aged bachelor.
• A key plot twist involves a long-held family secret, a common theme in Indian storytelling but presented in a modern, comedic way.
• The film uses many classic Bollywood song references to highlight the protagonist's romantic dreams and his simple nature.
