D'Silva promised that the film will be "an adrenaline pumping, emotionally charged bike racing film".

John, who has earlier showcased his passion for bikes on screen with the film "Dhoom", finds the "story around motorcycles close to his heart".

"This is a story about human relationships. I decided to develop a film on riders and their love for motorcycles in-house two years ago. A lot of research and time has been spent on the subject since then.
