What is the story of the film?
“It’s a story of identities,” Kapur has said in an earlier interview on Variety, describing the film. “It’s about cultural clashes and it’s a comedy, but it’s about hiding behind an identity and how identities can become tribal, and how tribalism can lead to clashes and fundamentalism. It’s a rom-com, but based on this fundamental idea of people adopting identities out of fear of marginalization.”
Who did the film music?
The music of the film has been done by British-Pakistani record producer and musician Naughty Boy of ‘Lalala’ fame.
Qawali Maestro Rahat Fateh Ali Khan has also recorded two songs for the film.
