He shared that the idea of the film first came to him when he read the book titled 'Case That Shook the Empire', authored by Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat. He added, “I grew up watching films by Rajkumar Santoshi films like Damini. That passion for large-scale human drama shaped my approach to filmmaking. The book uncovered layers of the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy rarely discussed. It wasn't just a massacre, it was a planned political act.”
