Director's Perspective on the Divine Tale

Sharing more details about the film, Vivek in a press note read, "I've always been fascinated by love stories, but when I started reading Shiv and Sati's story, I encountered love on a scale I had neither seen nor heard of. Bringing the first love story of the universe to life is thus both exhilarating and an immense responsibility. I believe that the current state of technology, coupled with the audience's appetite for grand spectacles, makes it the ideal time for narrating this tale that has been such an integral part of our culture for centuries."
