In an interview with Mid-day, Shabana had opened up about the title of the book and said, “Jadu was his nickname because he was a bright child, and that name stuck with him since it epitomised his magical personality. When he went to school, the hunt for a real name began, and they settled on Javed, because it was so close to Jadu.”
