→Trivia
- The film's director RishiKing is also known for his work as a cinematographer on several independent Hindi projects.
- The movie was primarily shot in a single, isolated bungalow to create a claustrophobic atmosphere.
- The sound design uses specific frequencies meant to induce unease, a technique common in psychological horror.
- It was released directly on a streaming platform, bypassing a traditional theatrical run in India.
- The plot draws loose inspiration from folklore about 'churail,' a vengeful female spirit in South Asian mythology.
- A key prop, an antique mirror used in several scenes, was sourced from a vintage collector in Rajasthan.
- The film's score incorporates distorted lullaby melodies to contrast its maternal and horror themes.
