Director Neeraj Pandey has said everything that could go wrong, actually went wrong with his debut film "A Wednesday!" but they eventually overcame all the obstacles.

"It was like Murphy's law in full display," he said about the film, which clocks 10 years Wednesday.

The film revolved around a common man's anger at the system for failing to deal with terrorism.

"We had issues on every side for this film. Whatever you could think could go wrong, went wrong. We are proud that we went through that journey and there is no pain," Pandey told PTI in an interview.

The director said first hiccup came in the form of the producers.

"After a point, the guys who were aligned with us gave up on us."
"The scripting of this film was simple, the end was sorted first, I had the climax first and then we worked on the middle and the first half. That's not how I usually work but on this particular film, it happened this way."
