Production

The screenplay was written by Ritesh Shah, based on a short story, The Railway Aunty by Mohan Sikka, published in 2009 anthology, Delhi Noir edited by Hirsh Sawhney.

Director Ajay Bahl had two choices for the lead role, Richa Chadda and Shilpa Shukla, whose work he had liked in Khamosh Pani. Shukla had recently done Chak De! India, and since he didn't want to go with a known face, he opted for Chaddha. However, when she was asked to act in Gangs of Wasseypur, he then suggested that she do that film instead of B.A. Pass, and cast Shukla in the lead role.

This film was mostly shot in the city of Delhi. It was shot by director-cinematographer Ajay Bahl in the bylanes of Paharganj, Barakhamba Road and the Sarai Rohilla area of Delhi, and the principal photography which started in July 2011 in Delhi, after two months devoted to look test, was completed in January 2012.

The background score was composed by Alokananda Dasgupta.
