Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar whose upcoming film is said to be based on real life story says, "I have said that it (the film) is 70 per cent fiction and 30 per cent real. Events have been dramatised for purpose of the film. I am going to put a disclaimer." Bhandarkar also said the story is about a husband and wife caught in the throes of the Emergency, "This is not political."

"I also heard what she said. Earlier also I have got some legal letters from her. My lawyers have countered and replied. I am sure you will get it soon. We have acknowledged it. We have replied," the filmmaker said.

Priya Singh Paul stated: "I was shocked to see the trailer of the movie, which is so misleading. In one scene, a man resembling Sanjay Gandhi says 'Ye sarkar chaabuk (whip) se chalti hai', and in the very next scene, a woman is shown being whipped in prison and later raped... which is completely misleading depiction of Sanjay Gandhi, who I once met and found a very gentle being, and from accounts I have heard from people who knew him."
