In November 2015, IMGC Global Entertainment came on board as a distributor.Casting

While Taimoor said, "The script is brilliant and its music also promises to be so; this is the main reason why I signed the film.

The music and soundtrack of the film is composed by Sahir Ali Bagga, while some of the track will have additional musicians, Sheikh said, "The majority of the soundtrack will be composed by [Sahir Ali] Bagga but it is likely that we may also have one or two more musicians contribute their tracks to the film as well. It is a great blend of tunes in my opinion and this was definitely a good decision"
