It’s his debut film. It is tentatively titled ‘Rathiya’. I am playing role of girl called Rathiya who is Rajasthani girl. In Gurjar community, especially in Rajasthan, there is custom that if a husband is not able to run their family after the marriage then he can sell off his wife in Mandi that is called Nath Pratha so this film handles that issue.
