'Lords of Lockdown' is a tribute to all the frontline workers, all the policemen, all the common people who went out of their way, defied the odds and reinstated faith in humanity. I would also like to applaud the entire cast and crew who ensured that the humane vulnerability is conveyed, that the valour of such unsung heroes is immortalised in the form of a feature film. Such recognitions re-affirm our dedication to explore deeper, more meaningful realm of cinema and entertain."
