Production

Filming

The producer in an Interview with Express Tribune stated that ISPR, had allocated the production budget for the Samjhota Express Scene but they were also kind enough to allow the film crew access to certain locations for Film Shooting. Including a location a kilometer away from the Indian Border for the scene where Shaheed Major Aziz Bhatti's was martyred.[7] The film's Post-production has been done locally in the city of Lahore.[8] The film currently is believed to be the most expensive film made at the moment therefore it took the film crew almost 4 years to produce an official trailer for the film.[9][10]

Special effects

The film has extensively used CGI in order to give the film high visual effects value.[7]

Music

A unity Song for the film is sung by former Cricket fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar and two of the film's main cast Kamran Mujahid and Rambo, as well as musicians Irfan Saleem and Asjad.[11][12]
