Speaking further about his illness, Vijay revealed that he hides his vitiligo only when he is in front of the camera. "I have hidden it for my films because it can be a distraction, and I don't want my audience to focus on anything other than what I am saying. So I choose to hide it". However, Vijay Varma revealed that he never hides his skin condition in public. He said that people today are very intelligent and have an innate sense of responsibility. He further added, "I have never spoken openly about my skin condition. Perhaps if it was a different time, it could have potentially become a topic of discussion".

The series is based on a real-life incident

In 1999, an Indian airliner IC 814 was hijacked by a group of five masked Pakistani terrorists, members of Harkat-ul-Mujahideen (HuM), while flying from Nepal to New Delhi. They ordered the plane to be flown to several locations, and eventually to Kandahar, which was under the control of the Taliban at the time. Without giving away potential spoilers, the outcome of that hijacking completely changed the direction of terrorism in India.
