For the unversed, the cinematic adaptation draws its storyline from Amar Bhushan's thrilling espionage novel, "Escape to Nowhere.” The film revolves around India's Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) agent who is on a mission to locate a mole involved in the illicit trade of defence secrets – all while struggling with the conflicting facets of her identity as a spy and a lover.

Earlier Rohan Narula in conversation with Midday opened up about the film. “What drew us to this book were the elaborate accounts of how R&AW works. Finding a book of this nature was a rather unusual experience. When you watch a spy film from the west, the slick storyline and the intricate plots are highly pronounced. On the contrary, there is very little information available on how R&AW works in India. Thus, it was the details that made us turn it into a screenplay,” tells Narula to Midday.

The book’s uniqueness is amplified by the fact that it doesn't contain any chapters. The thrill of the rush is rapid, without any full stops – keeping the reader glued to the very climax. “We really enjoyed the pulse-pounding narrative which factored in largely when we decided to adapt it. Though the storyline is based on the novel, we have given it our unique spin to it,” adds Narula.
