Production

Made on a budget of around two crore rupees,[1] Zill-e-Shah attracted much popular attention because of its print ads but also due to its promotional videos that ran on the various local TV channels.[1]

The producer said: "The entire post-production work of Zill e Shah was done in Mumbai's famous Adlabs. It happens to be one of the world's most expensive production houses. Whoever had a chance to watch the rushes simply loved the film. I was hoping for a grand premiere in India, but I don't know if that will be possible now, given the current political situation between the two countries."[1]
