Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 'Mulshi Pattern' refers to actual land-grabbing tactics around Pune's Mulshi taluka, where farmers were systematically dispossessed during the IT boom. The film sparked debates in Maharashtra's legislative assembly.
Rahulya's name change to 'Rahul Sakha Patil' — dropping the caste marker — mirrors how criminal networks and corporate land sharks both erase identities to claim territory. The film refuses to let either side off.
