Trivia

• The film is an official adaptation of the 1956 German play 'Die Zwölf Geschworenen' (The Twelve Jurors), which was also adapted into the classic Hollywood film '12 Angry Men'.
• Amitabh Bachchan and Emraan Hashmi worked together for the first time in this film, despite both having long careers in Bollywood.
• The movie was originally scheduled for a theatrical release in 2020 but was delayed multiple times due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Most of the film is set in a single, large room in a remote house, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere similar to a stage play.
• The veteran actor Annu Kapoor, who plays a key role, is known for his theater background, which suited the film's dialogue-heavy courtroom drama style.
• The film's title 'Chehre' translates to 'Faces' in English, symbolizing the different masks and personalities the characters reveal.
• Despite its thriller genre, the movie relies more on conversations and moral debates than on action or special effects.
