The reason for the rechristening is because writer-director Sriram Raghavan recently released a documentary on Raman Raghav titled 'Raman Raghav'. So, Kashyap felt a change in title was needed.

The film will do the festival rounds and buzz is that he is planning to premiere it at the Cannes film festival in May.
