While talking about his upcoming project,
“There are many reasons why this web series is special. By the way, we had first thought of working on this story in 2016. After that, to gather good people, built a team and 2018 dawned and by the time, working on big Bollywood and Marathi Movie projects, this project of ours was going on for a long time. During COVID, the whole world was sitting at home and facing different problems. After spending a total of 6 years, we finally decided to do this project.

No one from the team, didn’t have any writing experience and that’s why we started meeting writers. But personally, I did not want the manipulation with main story at all and then decided, let’s try writing as well. With this web series, me and Akshata were doing multiple things, not because we did not had money or team, but we wanted to put everything on paper and screen as we had a thought”, said by Mandar Sudhakar Khare.
