Heeraz Marfatia will direct this project and talking about Nawazuddin's role, he said "Nawaz has lived and dream stories of Sultana Daku since he was a child. In a way, he has been preparing to play this character his entire life without even knowing it,"
Nawazuddin is enthusiastic for playing this role of Sultana Daku and the actor stated "Kids today have super heroes they look up to and Sultana was a super hero to me. On dark winter nights when my family would be snug under a warm 'razai' (rug), with candle being the only source of light and the threat of modern dacoits in my village, Sultana would come to life in my father's stories as the real Daku," He further added "Unlike these criminals who terrorised us, Sultana always took a stand,"
