Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Honey Irani's directorial debut at 52, after decades as celebrated screenwriter — notably for her ex-husband Javed Akhtar's films.
The 'sacrifice marriage' plot directly echoes 1960s-70s Bollywood tropes, but with 2000s medical-professional gloss. Gracy Singh's casting post-Lagaan was deliberate prestige move.
