→Trivia
- The film was shot in a real water tank in Punjab, with the actor spending hours in water for authenticity.
- Director Parvinder Singh Wraich is also a former police officer, which influenced the crime elements in the story.
- The young lead actor, Harshvardhan Rane, prepared by studying real tank cleaners' lives and practicing breath-holding.
- It was inspired by true events of workers trapped in confined spaces, though the plot is fictionalized.
- The movie had a limited theatrical release in India but gained attention on streaming platforms later.
- Special effects were minimal, relying on practical sets and lighting to create the tank's claustrophobic feel.
- The soundtrack uses ambient sounds and sparse music to heighten the tension of the protagonist's isolation.
