On 27 February 2002, the train made a scheduled stop at Godhra, where four coaches of the train were set on fire reportedly by a mob. As many as 59 people, including 27 women and 10 children, were burned to death, while 48 others were injured

Presented by Balaji Motion Pictures, and produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, Amul V Mohan and Anshul Mohan under the banners of Balaji Motion Pictures and Vikir Films Production, the film is directed by Dheeraj Sarnal, and is set to release on November 15.
