The collaboration between director Raaj Shaandilyaa, of Dream Girl franchise fame, and Nana Patekar dates back to Welcome Back (2015). So, when ASP Rahul Srivastava of the Uttar Pradesh Cyber Crime unit approached the filmmaker-actor duo to create a short film on cyber security and digital arrest scams, the decision was a no-brainer.

“The ad is about an elderly couple, who is asked to pay up by a fraudster threatening to implicate him in a money-laundering case. However, Nana turns the tables on him,” explains Shaandilyaa. He adds that the video aims to educate the public about cybercrime and digital arrest scams, which are rampant these days.
