There is a certain kind of joy and a creative high to work with the talented artists from writing songs with lyricist Rashmi Virag to recording singers like Sunidhi Chauhan, Shaan Ji, My sister Palak Muchhal , Papon & directing Brijendra Sir. The whole process of making the series inside a rickshaw with only 4 cameras capturing every detail was definitely different and an incredible experience.

We have worked very hard on it and I sincerely hope this series leaves a lasting joy on its audience”, he excitedly added.
