Malhotra expressed his excitement about the project, stating, "Maharaj is a film that shows the resilience of the human spirit and how a common man could wield the courage to help people around him and thus, help society at large." He added, "Get set to be mesmerized by a world of horse-drawn carriages, old-school printing presses, kaccha roads, beautiful traditions, and a man’s willpower to do good."
