Speaking about the film’s premise at SXSW, Patel highlighted the fusion of mythology and social commentary, stating, “When you put those stories in a caste system with the idea of the one percent against the elite, I was like, I can take this and take what would be a Lord of the Rings-type film and distill it down and give it some social weight. I thought I could fuse this mythology with my love for the action genre.”
