Trivia

- The central ritual of head-shaving, or 'Mundan', is shown with specific details from Maharashtrian Hindu funeral customs.
- The movie was shot on location in a single village in Maharashtra over a schedule of just 22 days.
- Lead actor Om Bhutkar, who plays the young man, actually shaved his head for real during the filming and not with prosthetics.
