The stills of the movie illumine Divya Dutta sporting the ‘look’ of Meena Kumari, the legendary yesteryear icon.

An all excited Divya Dutta said, “I am very excited about this movie. I have been a huge fan of stalwarts like Meena Kumariji and Nutanji. Playing a character based in 50s for a black and white movie was like stepping into their shoes. But I am glad that directors are coming up with innovative ideas and interesting subjects these days and are ready to experiment with the look of the film, as per the demands of script. When I heard that the film was not in color and black & white instead, I was taken aback, but I immediately said yes.”
