About the film
Panday and Samat portray Nella Awasthi and Joe Mascarenhas, respectively, in the film. They are a passionate pair who work together to create content that their online audience finds engaging. Screen time has been redefined as screen life, according to Motwane, who is known for critically acclaimed films Udaan, Lootera, and Trapped, due to the amount of time people spend using their gadgets. "The question is, do we genuinely have control over all of our digital extensions, or do they dominate us? That's the solution CTRL attempts to investigate. We needed a cast that embodies this lifestyle as well as a contemporary media like Netflix for a concept as cutting edge as this one," Motwane stated in a statement.
