Directed by Honey Trehan and produced by Ronnie Screwvala, the film is based on the life of Sikh activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, who went missing in September 1995. The film has been delayed for a long time due to its struggle with CBFC, where 120 cuts in the movie, including the change in the film’s title, were suggested as per an earlier report by Midday.
