Actress Nadiya while speaking about the film said, "So far as I donning very peaceful roles. Now the first time I am donning the role of an authoritative police officer. The film Drishya is the remake of the super hit Malayalam film Drishyam. I have seen that film. I heard that Sripriya is going to direct the film.

When she approached me, I was apprehensive about how she will approach a film compared to a male director but I soon realized end of the day, work is work and it doesn't matter who is doing it.

But the advantage was that since I was working with Sripriya, I spent a lot of time bonding with her off the sets. It is a great thing for a woman to achieve in cinema which is filled with male chauvinism. Only successes will bring women to this field. In that way I feel this film will be a great success."
