Talking to Indian Express, Manish said, “The society has to always be a mirror reflecting the mindset of its inhabitants. Unfortunately, we as the film fraternity have started glorifying the evil and have started affecting impressionable minds of the viewers taking them closer to vices. I felt it was my duty to present the crime in its most naked and gruesome form so that the viewers are repelled by it.”

The film is being co-produced by Amit Gupta and Akash Gupta of Sarkar Productions India. The shooting for Hanak will commence on 27th November.
