Talking about her role in the Parchhayee, Pavleen Gujral said, "I was really excited to be a part of a Ruskin Bond story and particularly in Astley Ka Intezaar. It is not a typical spook fest at all as Ruskin Bond stories have a deeper dimension- a soul. In a very short while you form a connection with the characters. As for Astley Ka Intezaar, it is the last story on the series and as they say, save the best for the last."

It is also co-directed by the very talented, Aniruddha Chowdhury (Director of Pink). Produced by Banijay Asia, Parchhayee is now streaming on Zee 5 with Astley Ka Intezaar as its last instalment.
