- The film was shot in just 21 days, mostly at a single location to keep costs low.
- Director Mukesh also wrote the screenplay, drawing inspiration from real-life online job scams.
- The movie's sound design uses subtle cues like phone vibrations to build tension without loud music.
- It was originally planned as a direct OTT release but got a small theatrical run due to positive test screenings.
- The three lead actors did not know each other before filming to create authentic first-meeting chemistry.
- A key scene involving a hidden camera was filmed using a practical prop, not visual effects.
- The film's title 'Trap' refers to both the physical setting and the digital trap of fake job offers.
