Fateh is estimated to be made on an overall budget of 40 Crores all inclusive of Prints and advertising costs. Fateh was directed and produced by Sonu Sood.

Speaking about his experience directing Fateh, Sonu Sood recently told ANI, "When you become a director, you have the opportunity to craft every detail. I wrote each action sequence, including elements like whether the character would be hit with a plate, spoon, pen, or drill. We spent 2.5 months on an action shot, and the appreciation we've received reflects the effort we put in."

During the promotions, Sonu shared his emotional journey of becoming a director. "Stepping into the director's chair for the first time with Fateh has been a journey of passion and purpose. This action saga highlights the unseen battles fought in the digital world," he said.

Fateh draws inspiration from real-life events during the Covid-19 pandemic and explores the fight against cybercrime. Alongside Sonu Sood, the film stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Naseeruddin Shah, and Vijay Raaz.
