Director Zoya Akhtar provided insight into the project, saying, “More than the comic book, I think we went with a storybook. Everybody was there.” Dot, the singer, expressed the significance of the song, mentioning, “The whole thing about ‘Sunoh’ is that we are announcing that this is our story.” The legendary Javed Akhtar also shared his contributions to the track.
