Talking about the same, the filmmaker said, “I am making a film inspired from the life of Narayana Murthy and Sudha Murthy and I feel very privileged to be making this story. I truly admire Sudha Murthy and Narayana Murthy and specially Sudha Murthy, because I always feel that when I reach that age, I want to be like her. So, this is not a film for me, this is life.”

She added that she is also turning producer and will give younger directors a chance to showcase their talent. “And, I am also co-producing and directing something with Ekta Kapoor. I am also turning producer now, so I have a lot of stories where I want to give younger directors a chance to showcase their talent and give them a platform,” she said in conclusion.
