The screenplay is crafted by Reema Kagti, Zoya, and Ayesha Devitre.

The trailer of the movie gave us a glimpse into the storyline. The trailer immerses viewers in the nostalgic atmosphere of 1960, where the teenagers of Riverdale, Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead, Dilton, Ethel, Moose, and others—experience the joys of skating, dancing, and falling in love. The tranquillity of their lives in the town is disrupted when Veronica's father initiates ambitious business expansion plans.
