Director duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK were earlier supposed to helm Rajkummar Rao-starrer horror comedy "Stree" but due to time constraints they had to let go off their pet project.
Raj and DK, who have directed, "Go Goa Gone", say the script was originally written for them to direct from.
"When we wrote it ('Stree') and developed it, we were thinking to direct it... But we couldn't fit it into the timeline and we did not had much window to push it.
"To do it next year would have been too late for a unique film like this. We found Amar Kaushik (director) for doing this film. We have worked with him earlier. 'Stree' was a great experience," the duo told PTI.
Raj reveals when they were writing the film last year, they had also committed to doing a web series "Family Man" with Amazon Prime Video.
"We were trying to balance things - if we could shoot both. But we couldn't intercut between two projects. It did not make sense. We thought we should just focus on one project. It was a good idea so we thought we should let another director do it."
"It is our story. It is based on a true incident. It is a unique setting of a small town innocence, humour and horror. We had always wanted to make a film on the subject for a long time."
