Director Roopa Rao, known for her acclaimed film Gantumoote, emphasized the importance of capturing her protagonists' life journey in the story. While fans of the movie still rave about its impact, Roopa has recently announced her upcoming project, Gochara, clarifying that it is not a sequel to Gantumoote but holds a connection to it. She aims for viewers to uncover this link when they watch the film.

Roopa shares that the concept for Gochara arose from her own contemplations on existence. Drawing from her personal experiences of solo travel and the common societal concerns surrounding it, she delves into a narrative centered on a woman embarking on a solo journey, exploring both internal and external landscapes.

In discussing the themes of her new film, Roopa points out the prevalent issue faced by women travelers – it is not the act of traveling that poses a challenge, but rather the perceptions held by men witnessing a woman traveling alone. This dynamic, she believes, forms a significant part of the storyline in Gochara. With the protagonist's extensive travels throughout India, Roopa intends to present a narrative that empowers women and challenges traditional notions, seeking to inspire both female viewers and shift perspectives among men.
