A source close to the development told Mumbai Mirror, “It’s a female-oriented subject that defies narratives typecasting women. It questions the society and will deliver a poignant message on world domination by women." Taapsee will be seen portraying the role of a middle-class girl in the film. Earlier in July, Taapsee shared her happiness over being a part of the “subject way too close to heart”. She posted a picture with the filmmaker and wrote, “8th March 2020 will surely be the day to watch out for!”

The film is set to hit theatres on 6 March, 2020, during the International Women’s Day weekend. Taapsee has also signed  Rashmi Rocket , where she will play an athlete.  The film will be directed by Akarsh Khurana, who has earlier helmed Irrfan Khan, Dulquer Salmaan and Mithila Palker-starrer Karwaan. The actress released her first look from the project on 30 August in a motion poster.
