The film was to release theatrically in May 2020, but got pushed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Speaking about the film, director Dasgupta said in an earlier interview, "I always wanted to explore this genre and loved this unique story. There is plenty to relate to both in terms of the emotions and mysteries that I was able to delve into in this thriller -- rejection, loneliness, voyeurism, daily commutes on which we see and don't see things. It was an extremely fruitful experience working on the film. Hope the audience will be as excited watching ‘The Girl On The Train' as I was making it."

The Girl On The Train follows the story of Meera (Parineeti), who fixates on the perfect lives of a couple from afar, during her daily train commutes. One day, she witnesses something out of the ordinary that shocks her. The film is an official Hindi remake of the Hollywood thriller The Girl On The Train, which is based on Paula Hawkins' 2015 bestseller of the same name. The Hollywood version by Tate Taylor featured Emily Blunt in the lead role.
