Production
Director Qaushiq Mukherjee said that Garbage reflected "the kind of time I was living in for the last two years, personally and social speaking."[4] He began writing the script which was initially titled The fucked. He said that several parts of the film were based on real characters and incidents. The taxi driver and the captive girl were "composites of different people" while the protagonist was based on his friend who had died in 2017.[4] Mukherjee said that the film was mostly unscripted and "workshop-driven."[6] To prepare for his character, Tanmay worked as a production driver for the team for a month. Mukherjee wrote the script while dealing with the deaths of a few close ones when he said he realised that "death is the only reality."[6]
