Nandita said that Zwigato is a simple yet complex slice-of-life movie which is a story about new urban India. The director revealed she is thrilled that Zwigato will premiere soon at the TIFF.

"This means a lot to me personally as I have debuted there both as an actor and director, with Fire and Firaaq, respectively. Over the years, several other films have taken me to TIFF. I hope the universality of the theme of the film will resonate with the amazing audiences that the festival attracts from all over the world," Nandita was quoted saying to an entertainment portal.

On the work front, Kapil Sharma is currently busy with his comedy tour with his team in the United States and Canada.
