Trivia


 

    Album

  • The film was based on the novel "Calling Sehmat" by Harinder S. Sikka. The book was a fictionalised account of a real-life story of a Kashmiri spy who married a Pakistani armed forces officer during the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971. The information she provided helped avert an attack on the Indian aircraft carrier INS Vikrant. Sehmat was not her real name - Sikka kept her identity a secret. The name of the spy's character in the film was a synonym of Sehmat. The novel was originally published by Konark Publishers in 2008 and re-published by Penguin Books in 2018, shortly after the film's release.[1][2][3]
  • Harinder S. Sikka was unhappy with how the film based on his book turned out. He had three key complaints about the film - the change in the name of the titular character, its "pro-Pakistani approach", and the negative portrayal of the protagonist's return to India after completing her mission. He claimed that director Meghna Gulzar had not met her contractual obligation of showing him the director's cut of the film. Sikka also accused Meghna and her father Gulzar of sidelining him by not involving him in the film's promotions, by attempting to force his exit from the Jaipur Literature Festival, and by using their influence to postpone his book's launch till after the film's release.[4]
  • Alia Bhatt's real-life mother Soni Razdan played her mother in the film. This was the first time they worked together in a film.

    Song

  • Ae Watan Watan Watan Mere Aabad Rahe Tu (Female) - The song included a verse of a popular prayer poem written by Allama Iqbal in 1902. The lines of the verse went "Lab pe aati hai dua ban ke tamanna meri / Zindagi shamma ki surat ho khudaya meri".
