The project has a budget of a whopping 40 Million US dollars! Talking about the film, Alexey said, "Journey to India is about bringing Russia and India together. It's a big movie and the budget will be around 40 million US dollars."

He further commented, "We were looking for an actor who is like a leader in this industry with his own production house. Like from China, we signed Jackie Chan who is also a producer. So we have approached SRK and I am sure he will be interested in this type of project because it has world-class appeal and the film will be released all over the world."

"The scope of Russian films in India and Indian films in Russia is still not there. I have watched a lot of Indian movies. And that is why we have decided to do this joint collaboration between India and Russia in the form of VIY: Journey to India," quipped Russian film-maker Alexey Petruhin.
