Director Sujay Shastry said that the film’s release was delayed due to unavoidable reasons, but the time has now come for its release. ‘The film is set in the 1990s and most of the shooting for the film has been done in and around Kanakapura. The film conveys the importance of time and the title perfectly complements the story’ said Sujay.
Chandan Shetty said this is his first film as a lead actor and that he prepared extensively for the role, even gaining weight for it. ‘The film beautifully conveys the importance of valuing time and the consequences of not doing so. The film has a meaningful message and has come out very well’ said the rapper.
