"I'm drawn to stories that twist with whimsy and humour. Hardly anyone crafts those better than Satyajit Ray and a chance to tell this story is a great opportunity for me. With Manoj Bajpayee and Gajraj Rao playing off each other on screen, Hungama Hai Kyon Barpa. I hope is as much of a joy to watch as it was to make. Super stoked about the show and can't wait for people to watch it!" Abhishek Chaubey had told a website.
