Ishrat will be my directorial debut […] The film has action, comedy and romance […] It's a passion project that I have been thinking of working on for long.

Second filming spell took place during 2 to 24 March 2020. While some of the cast and crew flew in there in late-February, and flew back on 18 March, a team of 21 members was stuck at a hotel in Kanchanaburi and they couldn't move to Bangkok for a safe travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand. After a wrap-up of principal photography, the flight was being delayed from 25 March due to closure of airports, until 14 April 2020 when they flew back to Islamabad on a special flight of Pakistan International Airlines. After safely testing negative for the virus, they traveled in a bus to Karachi for post-production phase, thus utilizing an extra budget.[13]
