Director BR Sabawat Naik's vision is evident throughout the film. Drawing inspiration from Che Guevara's biography, the director presents a nuanced portrayal that goes beyond the familiar narrative.

The film's technical aspects, particularly the background music by Ravi Shankar complements the narrative, creating an immersive atmosphere.
