→Trivia
- The film's title 'Sitara' is a subtle nod to the lead character Tara, as 'Sitara' means 'star' in Hindi and Urdu.
- Director Vandana Kataria shot most of the family home scenes in a real, lived-in house in a small North Indian town.
- The movie's soundtrack features a folk song from the Uttarakhand region, reflecting the characters' rural background.
- This was the first time actors Shiv Panditt and Tanya Maniktala worked together, despite both being known for web series.
- The script was partly inspired by real-life conversations the director had with married couples about family secrets.
- A key scene involving a hidden letter was filmed in a single, unbroken take to build tension.
- The film had a very limited theatrical release, focusing more on digital streaming platforms for its premiere.
