He said that it is not a traditional adaptation of Umro Ayyar. To the question, “Can we say that movie is totally based on our childhood Umro Ayyar stories? Or is it changed?” Usman replied, “OUR STORY IS NOT A DIRECT/ADAPTATION FROM THE ΒΟΟΚ, IT SHARES A CONNECTION WITH ITS NARRATIVE. OUR STORY IS ENTIRELY ORIGINAL, ALTHOUGH IT DOES INCORPORATE CERTAIN ELEMENTS THAT ARE CONNECTED TO THE ORIGINAL BOOK”.
