The movie has been directed by National Award winners Satyanshu Singh and Devanshu Kumar and received its initial premiere in 2019’s Jagran Film Festival.

Before announcing this project, AIB revealed in 2019 that they would be ceasing operations until further notice due to problems like lack of funding. The decision was made after some members’ names surfaced in the #MeToo movement.

However, post the controversy, Shakya and Joshi have released their comedy specials on Amazon Prime Video India.

Earlier last year, AIB did screenings in different cities for Chintu Ka Birthday.
