Production

The film was announced in September 2023. Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina were cast as the leads. In November 2023, Aditya Nanda and Sobhita Dhulipala joined the cast of the film.

The character of Hansraj Landa was loosely inspired by the character Hans Landa from Quentin Tarantino's film Inglourious Basterds. According to actor Bijou Thaangjam, he was cast for a role by the film producers but was dropped without notice; which he attributed to racism towards people from northeast India.

Principal photography commenced by October 2023. The film was mainly shot in Mumbai, Thailand and Singapore before wrapping in February 2024. These locations were chosen to portray the fictional country of Hanshi Dao in the film (which loosely resembles Singapore).
