"I always wanted to explore this genre and loved this unique story.There is plenty to relate to both in terms of the emotions and mysteries that I was able to delve into in this thriller -- rejection, loneliness, voyeurism, daily commutes on which we see and don't see things. It was an extremely fruitful experience working on the film. (I) Hope the audience will be as excited watching 'The Girl On The Train' as I was, while making it," Ribhu said in a statement to IANS.
