Nawazuddin Siddiqui talked about playing Inspector Jatil again for the sequel Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders. He said stepping back into the part after years meant considering how both he and the character changed over time. Jatil is not the same guy now, shaped by life and his cases, but Siddiqui noted the detective's core commitment to the truth remains solid. The role required a quiet, internal approach, focusing on what stays hidden under the surface rather than big displays of emotion. Playing a small-town cop facing down powerful people meant using silence effectively, something he felt reflected a common reality.

Siddiqui described the acting process as demanding and personal, needing him to reconnect with who he was before and track a believable evolution for Jatil, who still carries his past burdens into the new investigation. He praised director Honey Trehan for his sensitive and precise handling of the film's world, building tension carefully through pauses and what goes unspoken. The movie first showed at the International Film Festival of India before its global release on Netflix.
