Production
Development
The film originated from the personal anecdotes shared by Ashish Avinash Bende, reflecting his experiences as a Dalit boy in Pune. Encouraged by Paresh Mokashi and Madhugandha Kulkarni, Bende translated these stories into a script, spurred by an ultimatum from Kulkarni.[5]
Casting
Bende drew inspiration from his own circle of friends, ensuring a genuine representation of the characters' dynamics.[5]
Filming
Principal-photography was begun in March 2021. Shooting of the film amidst the COVID-19 pandemic posed logistical challenges. Using live streaming technology, Bende remotely supervised the shoot, maintaining real-time communication with the crew. The half of shooting was completed before second lockdown. The film was shot over 36 days around 37 locations.[5]
Reception
In the "Generation 14plus" section, the film was competed for the Crystal Bear and the film prize AG KINO GILDE 14plus.[6]
