Sanghi doesn't intend to interfere with the scripting process. "An audio-visual storytelling is different from novel writing. I have made myself clear, I don't want to be the scriptwriter. I have told the filmmaker that I will be available if they need clarity on anything, or if the film encounters trouble."
The Sialkot Saga is a thriller involving two protagonists. The makers are yet to decide which digital platform will see the release. It is being helmed by production company, FilmKaravan.
