The storyline of this film is inspired from David Fincher's "Se7en" and Bone Collector.
Director Robbie Grewal stated "Yes, when I scripted the film, I had a male cop in mind. One day, I was having a discussion with iDreams and they just happened to ask, what if a woman were the lead of the film instead of a man?I went home and slept over it. The next day, I felt that it was a very novel idea.I was very clear that I would not change the screenplay. The male cop was anyway not the dishum-dishum kind who would bash up criminals. Also, I have always felt that women are stronger than men. Not physically, but in all other ways. To showcase that on screen seemed interesting.
If I had written the character for a woman initially, I may have played it safe. Since there are so many cop films coming up, mine will have an extra element to it because this cop is a woman. Once I decided that, I knew that only Sushmita Sen would fit the role. She has the persona and body language to carry out this role. But I did not model my character on anyone. Sushmita is not a Kiran Bedi.".

The film was delayed for three months after censor board found its ending too disturbing for Indian audience, but eventually the director took this to court and the film was passed.
The film opens with a scene from Hitchcock's 'Vertigo'.
The film did not have a theatrical release in British Columbia, Canada.
