Talking more about her upcoming project, Soha says, “We have never been producers and it’s our first time. We had the good fortune and honour of meeting Mr Ram Jethmalani a few years ago, and he is a very forthcoming person. I knew a bit about his professional life, and a little bit about his personal life as well. He has had a bit of a notorious reputation, and has been known to represent many famous and infamous people throughout his career.”

Elaborating further, she adds, “I thought it was a fascinating life that he had led, and a film had to be made on it. You can see how intrinsically his life is linked to the history of India. He was born in 1923, lived more than 95 years and worked in a legal capacity of more than 70 years. He saw so much, and he represented - and really fought for - the idea of India, sometimes against the Indian government, and sometimes against the symbols of India. He fought for the law, and it always came first for him, no matter what.”
