Talking about the film, Meera Chopra said, “Safed is a special film to me. It is all because of Sandeep Singh who chose this story as his directorial debut. It is heartening that such an important film is making the right noise thanks to its poster being launched at Cannes, that too by the hands of A.R. Rahman.
On the other hand, Abhay Verma shared, “Every actor’s ambition is to have a debut film that goes to Cannes, and I feel blessed and privileged to be living it.” My director Sandeep Singh’s trust and faith in me made this journey really memorable. I’m still pinching myself over the fact that I was featured on the poster launched by our nation’s pride, A.R. Rahman.”
