This film is being jointly produced by Zee Studios, Dharma Productions and Cloud 9 Pictures. Watching the teaser video, it seems that this is a love story film which challenges social conventions. The reality of a society divided into castes and classes has been presented in the film. Looking at the teaser of the film, it seems that it will be based on a sad story. In the beginning, it is written in blood, 'There was one king, one was queen, the caste was different'. A voice comes from the background, 'Vidhi, there is no place for me in the dream you are seeing.' The answer is, 'Then you tell me, Nilesh, what should I do with these feelings?' The song goes, 'Duniya alag hai meri, kaise milenge aag aur paani'.
