The multi-starrer film is helmed by several renowned directers and it has created buzz already delivering promising stories. The trailer showcases multiple stories featuring Fatima Sana Shaikh and Jaideep Ahlawat, Shefali Shah and Manav Kaul, Konkona Sen Sharma and Aditi Rao Hydari among others. Bharuccha and her daughter's story is directed by Raj Mehta where the actor plays a house-help who is stuck between reality and the concept of morality.

She added, "Meenal's story is that of an ordinary girl who is struggling to make ends meet, and provide for the best for herself and her sister. I could feel a similarity in Meenal's life and my house help, who too worked hard to provide for her son, with all the opportunities she can. I absolutely adore her because of her spirit of fighting hard, with a sweet smile on her face always."
