She stated, “This is not a political film. It's a story. It has nothing to do with politics.” She emphasized that audiences would not leave the theater thinking about whom to vote for, but rather be enlightened by a significant episode in history.

She added, “If you see ‘Argo’ in Hollywood, you don't come out thinking who to vote for or who not to vote for.” The film is set during the turbulent period of the 1970s Emergency declared by Indira Gandhi, promising to delve into a pivotal chapter of Indian democracy.
