 This film marks the directorial debut of Shivam Nair with a story much closer to the Fyodor Dostoevsky's 1848 short story, White Nights, on which an earlier Raj Kapoor film Chhalia was also based.Nair and Imtiaz Ali had earlier directed a telefilm "Witness" for Star Bestsellers, with the same story.This story is woven around aimless youth Ankush Ramdev (Abhay Singh Deol) who scrapes a living by acting as a witness in Delhi's marriage registrar bureau and a girl Megha (Soha Ali Khan) who has run away from her home in Nainital, to marry her love Dheeraj (Shayan Munshi).
