In an interview with Mashable India, Sujoy Ghosh shared the challenges he faced during the film's production due to a tight budget. He said “You have no idea. We didn’t have any budget to even afford a vanity van. We didn’t have the luxury of pausing shoot because we were on a tight budget. So, every time she had to change, we used to cover her Innova with a black cloth, in the middle of the road, and she used to change inside and come out for shoot.”
