Sunhil Sippy is directing the movie, which is an adaptation of Saba Imtiaz's novel "Karachi, You're Killing Me!". The actress, daughter of actor and politician Shatrughan Sinha, says the setting has been changed to Mumbai. "The film is based on that book but we have changed it to Mumbai setting... I feel every girl in fact some boys will be able to relate to it in some way or the other. It is a likeable and relatable character," Sonakshi said.
