In an interview with Indian Express, Radhika revealed that even though Noor was British, she spent most of her time in France. Thus, it was difficult to figure out the accent for her role in the movie. She initially also planned to learn French as she wasn’t fluent in the language. She stated that later, due to unforeseen circumstances, she got her lines just a day before her final shot and she didn’t get enough time to practice. She added that everyone on the set was helpful to her with the pronunciations of her lines.

The historical drama released in the month of November in the UK and the USA. The movie is well-received for its strong performance and timely themes. The plot of the movie revolves around unrecognised three female spies of Winston Churchill’s Special Operations Executive (SOE). The spies worked to undermine the Nazi regime in France.
