Sudhir Kadam of PUN Films said, "Among the regional film industries other than those from South, Bhojpuri has the maximum potential and countrywide market, so that was a no brainer, but what clinched it for us was the support from Ravi Kishan, who went out of his way to ensure that we had the right resources and support to see our project through."

PUN Films has set a new standard in Bhojpuri Film Industry by picking talent from FTII – Director, Dhiraj Kumar, and the DOP, D N Shukla are top students with awards to their credit.The entire technical crew comprised of top professionals coming for the first time to make a Bhojpuri Film.
