One incident during the filming of Raat Akeli Hai had made the headlines when a fan from Kanpur had grabbed Nawazuddin Siddique by the neck in an attempt to get a selfie with the star. Siddique's security personnel quickly brought the fan under control whereas help from the police force was also required. This incident had taken place when the crew was filming Raat Akeli Hai in Kanpur's Kotwali area. Before filming in Kotwali, Nawaz had earlier shot in locations like Kanpur's Lala Lajpat Rai Hospital in Swaroop Nagar and later moved to Bithoor area. Raat Akeli Hai has a runtime of 149 minutes, which translated in an extensive shooting schedule for Nawazuddin Siddiquie who headlines the crime-thriller. Raat Aklei Hai is now available to stream on Netflix.
