Principal photography commenced in Mumbai on 4 December 2019, which later shifted to Gujarat. The film wrapped up on 7 February 2020. The film met to multiple release date postponements during 2020–2021, as it wasn't unveiled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with makers waiting to release it theatrically rather than releasing it on OTT platforms. Finally, the film released theatrically on 13 May 2022. It did not perform well and was a huge commercial failure, causing great losses for makers.
