The film, written and directed by Kangana Ranaut, was initially set to release on November 24, 2023, but was postponed due to changes in her schedule. It was later rescheduled to June 14.

The Bollywood actor is contesting from Mandi in Himachal Pradesh, her native state. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is fielding her against Congress’ Vikramaditya Singh.
