“I’m looking forward to this project. The script is good and this is the first time I will be attempting such a multi-layered character in a mainstream Bollywood film. What really caught my attention was the story, which revolves around a relevant issue,” she was quoted as saying by Times Now .
Shamas has earlier directed several TV shows and also helmed an award-winning short film Miyan Kal Aana, based on the law of Halala.
