The film features a powerhouse ensemble cast including Manoj Bajpayee, Saqib Saleem, Akshay Oberoi, Kiku Sharda, and Nushrratt Bharuccha.

Reflecting on her professional reunion with Manoj Bajpayee, their second collaboration after Last Man in Tower, Dutta was full of praise for the actor’s craft. She highlighted his unique ability to transform himself for every character he takes on, noting that he brings a fresh and fascinating energy to the screen every time. Watching him work is always an interesting experience, as he consistently elevates the material through his dedication to his craft.
