The choice of venue holds particular significance for the film, as CSMT was among the locations targeted during the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, an event that is closely connected to the story of veteran public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam. Nikam served as the special public prosecutor in the 26/11 case and led the prosecution in the trial of terrorist Ajmal Kasab.
