→Trivia
- The film's title references the 1950 Japanese classic 'Rashomon', known for its multiple-perspective storytelling.
- It was shot entirely in a single Mumbai studio to maintain a claustrophobic, tense atmosphere.
- Director Aniruddha Deshmukh cast two relatively unknown theater actors as the lead interrogating officers.
- The script required the actors to perform their long interrogation scenes in mostly single takes.
- Despite its 2023 release, the film had a very limited theatrical run and gained attention primarily on streaming platforms.
- The murder party scene was filmed using only candlelight to create a mysterious, shadowy visual effect.
- This was the first Hindi film to use a narrative structure where all suspects are interrogated in one continuous room.
