Mumbaiand the gritty life of Mumbai’s underworld, including prostitution, dance bars and gun crime. The film was headlined by the ‘first and last’ taboo chosen by the filmmakers for the story’s protagonist, Mumtaz. For Bhandarkar, however, breaking through taboos was no easy task.

R. Mohan asked Bandakar to narrate Chandni Baa and tried not to think of anything else. But Bhandarkar had to tell her that he was the one who made her Trishakti when she asked about his work. After finding out he was the man behind Trishakti, she became “depressed” and asked her Mohan what other films he was making. However, just when Banderkar thought he had lost the chance to cast Taboo in his own film, R Mohan stepped in and demanded that Taboo at least hear the narration. Taboo obliged.
