Helmed by Raj Mehta, the film additionally stars Diana Penty and Nushrratt Bharuccha in pivotal roles. The film is a remake of the 2019 Malayalam movie Driving Licence, which featured Prithviraj Sukumaran and Suraj Venjaramoodu. 

Film critic Saibal Chatterjee, in his review for NDTV, wrote, “Script isn’t King inSelfiee. It is an unabashed Akshay Kumar show. The star leaves absolutely nothing to chance. He stamps himself on everything that the vapid film has on offer. The narrative (derived from the late Sachy’s screenplay) is tweaked and stretched to make space for an actor in search of a hit. But nothing clicks.”
