Faraz – who likewise coordinated India's first quiet LGBTQIA+ film Sisak – portrays the motion pictures as an "a gentle story, with scenery of religion and sexuality." He lets us know, "The idea of Sheer Khurma came to me while I was traveling to various film festivals for the last two years with Sisak. I realized that everyone is talking about gay men or bisexual men, but nobody was really talking about women in the LGBTQIA+ community. There are very few films from the LGBTQIA+ spectrum that talk about women as protagonists. Other than that, nobody is really talking about religion and sexuality, which I think is imperative, given the world we live in. I think religion, by default, becomes a part of our socio-political understanding in the world we live in today, and I wanted to make a gentle story, with a backdrop of religion and sexuality."
The film, which likewise stars Surekha Sikri, follows the adventure of a strange lady looking for a feeling of having a place, a personality and acknowledgment from her family. The chief says that it was difficult to kick it into high gear. The first hindrance was finding a maker to back the subject, as most needed a film on male LGBTQIA+ heroes, as opposed to female. "I was connecting with a great deal of creation studios in India, and every one of them made them thing to state – 'we are just taking a gander at movies that have a male hero'. 'Humein mard chahiye, film ke liye' and 'Aaj kal gay movies kaafi cool hai' – that is the thing that they let me know," he says.
"Even in the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, they want the story leads to be masculine; they don't want women's stories to come out. They think they are being very progressive by saying we are making LGBTQIA+ cinema or we want to make LGBTQIA+ cinema, but the minute you say the story is about two women, they'll start balking."
