This isn't the first time Kangana has praised Yami. Last year, in June, after Yami married filmmaker Aditya Dhar, Kangana had shared a pic of Yami dressed as a bride and praised the 'raw mountain girl'. She wrote on her Instagram Stories. "Older than tradition and time. Nothing more divine than a raw mountain girl turned bride #himachalpradesh." Both Kangana and Yami hail from Himachal Pradesh. Kangana was brought up in Manali and is currently living there with her family. Yami was born in Bilaspur.

The Hindustan Times review of the film says, "It’s a serviceable vigilante movie whose plusses include the tense atmosphere supplied by the premise itself. The incessant rain adds to the morose proceedings."
