Production
The film was mostly written in English language for the "educated audience," while Urdu had also been used at some parts.[1] British director Michael Hudson developed the script based on the real-life events of actor Kamran Faiq, who would also appear and produce the film.[1] The script was very difficult to write because Hudson had never been to Pakistan before, so he got Faiq's help in writing the script.[2] The other cast included Javed Sheikh, Amna Ilyas, Adnan Shah Tipu, Rehan Sheikh, and Omair Rana.[1] The film would be a co-production of Pakistan, Poland, UK and Russia.[3]
Filming
Principal photography on the film was done in Lahore, Pakistan, the location was chosen by the director who thought the script was a perfect fit in the country.[1] In May 2015, filming was underway.[4]
Release
The film was expected to be released in late 2017.[1]
