Going by the first look poster, the film is likely to have political undertones as the poster features communist symbol on the US national flag. Dulquer, meanwhile, seems to play a role of communist supporter. It will be, indeed, interesting to see how well his communist ideology works for him in his quest to find love in the US, which is a capitalist nation.

Dulquer described CIA, which seems to be conflicting of ideologies by the look of it, as “ambitious” and thanked his director Amal Neerad for the opportunity. “Thank you Amal Etta for the opportunity and for letting me be a part of something so ambitious and grand,” he posted on his Facebook page.
