The thought-provoking trailer of the film features Taapsee Pannu in the lead role as a housewife named Amrita (AMU). The trailer begins with an advocate asking Amrita as to why 'just a slap' by her husband is driving her to abandon him. To which, she gives a bold reply, "Haan bas EK THAPPAD ..... par nahi maar sakta." (It's just a slap, but no he can't do it.)
