Monika Shergill, vice-president of content at Netflix India, shared her excitement about the project, emphasizing the platform’s support for Raj & DK's bold vision.

Raj & DK’s last project for Netflix was Guns & Gulaabs, which garnered positive reviews. Currently, they are gearing up for their upcoming series Citadel: Honey Bunny on Prime Video, slated for release this year and featuring Varun Dhawan, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Kay Kay Menon, and Sikander Kher.
