Trivia

Album

• The film was a long time in the making. It was certified in July 2019 but released along with its music only in January 2020. It was among the last released films of actor Om Puri who died in 2017.
• The film was a biopic of the Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai. Its title was a pseudonym Malala had used in 2009 to write a series of blogposts for BBC Urdu. According to director H.E. Amjad Khan, he didn't take her permission to make the film but she did watch it and "loved it".[1]
• The film credited director H.E. Amjad Khan and writer Bhaswati Chakrabarty as the lyricists of its songs. However, only Khan was credited as the lyricist in the YouTube videos of the songs in Pen Movies' official channel.
