While the picturesque hill stations lend themselves naturally to the script of the horror comedy, the director says the team's choice of locations was determined by a more pressing factor. "[Shooting under current circumstances] is definitely a risk, but for how long can we be sitting at home? Himachal is one of the safest locations in our country. The number of cases is low and the region hasn't witnessed [rampant] spread of the infection." He also points out that the production house will follow all the safety norms, thus ensuring a smooth schedule.
Even as he prepares to set the ball rolling on his project, he does not discount the possibility of a sequel. "Horror films lend themselves well [to a franchise]. But right now, our effort is to make a good movie."
