"This is a one of a kind graphic novel. I don't think there are any set rules for any graphic novels, be it zombie or any other. While we were coming up with this novel, we came across a graphic book for the Hollywood movie Shaun Of The Dead that was 40 to 45 pages and we kind of created different ideas on how to go about on our book. Initially, we came up with a wide screen format, more like a landscape pages. We thought it would lend more to the cinematic culture we've been a witness to. We also saw the same in the graphic novel of the film 300. But the final product what we've come up with is conventional." -

"Initially, the title of the graphic book was 'Bollywood of the Dead'. But later on, when we got the publishers on board we decided that it wasn't connecting to the Indian audiences in what we wanted to say. The theme was Zombies and then Bollywood. So we decided to call it 'Zombie Talkies'. It's universally accepted then. It made more sense."
