Talking about Taapsee's dedication, director Akarsh Khurana shares, "The students were so inspired by Taapsee that the school named their gym after her. She trains for two hours every day for better stamina and the body language of an athlete."

Rashmi Rocket revolves around a young girl from a village, who is blessed with a gift. She is an incredibly fast runner and the village fondly knows her as Rocket. The film will be produced by Ronnie Screwvala, Neha Anand and Pranjal Khandhdiya.
