It is based on Edgar Allan Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart. Originally scheduled for release in January 2017, the release date was delayed following the 2016 Uri attack and the announcement by Maharashtra Navnirman Sena that they would not allow films featuring Pakistani actors to be screened. The film was ultimately released in August 2018 to poor critical reception.

Production
