Kalki and Sabiha have explored India and Pakistan to understand lifestyles, religion and violence stemming from extremism. The filmmaker said, "This project had been in the works for three years. When I met Kalki as a jury member at MAMI last year, she struck me as someone who empathizes with the world and is concerned about its issues. When I told her about the idea for my film she immediately came on board as the Indian partner. She visited Pakistan for the first time earlier this year and we travelled across deserts and mountains. The idea was to capture how two women feel the pulse of the two countries,” she picked out the Pakistani locations to shoot the film, Kalki took care of spots across the border. "Kalki picked out the Indian locations along with our research team. We shot in a Mumbai local, in a truck in Sindh and played Holi with the fishermen community in Mumbai. A part of the film is yet to be shot," the filmmaker signs off.
