The only Hindi movie of Telugu actor Nithin. After the film bombed at box office Nithin returned back to Telugu industry and never worked again in Bollywood till date.
Inspired by Predator and Tremors.
Ramgopal Varma stated "If AGYAAT fails the responsibility will be solely on me as Dwarak and others worked towards my vision and my briefing. So he or anybody is not a party to my decisions of how I am making Agyaat or any other film in totality. So irrespective of AGYAAT's success, Dwarak's sound is already a super success for me."
The film did not have a theatrical release in British Columbia,Canada.
Ramgopa Varma stated "In AGYAAT since the audience does not get to see the antagonist it was a challenge for Dwarak Warrier my sound designer who worked with me earlier in Bhoot and Company to be able to create the character of the creature purely through his sound play.Also the sounds of the forest which are pretty exciting and eerie in themselves obviously in the genre and subject of AGYAAT call for even more dramatic treatment. The forest needed to be felt seemingly alive by itself as an entity and its various moods could only be reflected through its sounds and I must say Dwarak literally breathed life into the jungle through his sound application.
Of course the most difficult task for him was to create the sound for the creature. Like I said since no one can see the creature in the film he literally had to invent new sounds through a variety of experiments which finally are intended to give a form to the creature in the imagination of the audience. The most difficult part of this exercise was that the creature cannot sound like something one has heard before, as that of a lion's roar or what you have heard from a dinosaur in films etc. At the same time it has to be organic and also it has to match the expressions of the actors. The sound of the creature also has to give an indication to the characters and the audience of its mood whether it is playing with them or whether it's angry or whether it's in pain or whatever else.
This near impossible task Dwarak has achieved far beyond my imagination. The most ironical part is that Dwarak is the quietest man I have ever met in my life. When he speaks he is barely audible. He is so shy as a person that one will miss him even if he is in the same room. The concept and the imagination might have come from me, but the astonishingly innovative sound of AGYAAT came from the ultra silent Dwarak Warrier.
