Trivia

  • The film's title 'Aurangzeb' is a metaphor for the ruthless Mughal emperor, reflecting the movie's themes of power and betrayal.
  • Actor Arjun Kapoor played dual roles, but his lookalike character was not created using visual effects; a real body double was used for some shots.
  • Director Atul Sabharwal took over seven years to develop the script, drawing inspiration from real-life crime stories in the Delhi-NCR region.
  • The movie features a cameo by veteran actor Jackie Shroff, who appears in a brief but pivotal role as a police officer.
  • Despite its star cast, the film underperformed at the box office, earning only about 20 crore rupees against a higher budget.
  • Some scenes were shot in Gurgaon's modern office buildings to contrast the gritty underworld setting with corporate corruption.
  • The soundtrack includes a song called 'Barbaadiyan' by composer Vishal-Shekhar, which did not gain much popularity upon release.
