Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films remarked that the story delves into the human psyche, exploring themes of power dynamics, social inequality, and the hunter versus the hunted. Dinesh Vijan expressed his excitement about collaborating with Netflix once again, stating, "We are excited to work with Netflix again and on a story like Sector 36, which is an intensely sensory film. For us, it's a story that we felt was crucial to be told. The film is layered, delving deeply into the human psyche, exploring the hunter and the hunted, the haves and the have-nots. Vikrant Massey and Deepak Dobriyal deliver outstanding performances, and we couldn’t be prouder of their work."

The film, written by Bodhayan Roychaudhury, is inspired by true events, which only adds to its chilling narrative. Sector 36 centers around the mysterious disappearances of several children from a local slum. These unsettling events prompt a local police officer to embark on a mission to uncover the horrifying truth. As the investigation unfolds, the officer finds himself in a deadly game of cat and mouse with a cunning serial killer. The film promises to take viewers on a suspenseful journey, keeping them on the edge of their seats with every twist and turn.

In addition to Sector 36, Vikrant Massey has another project in the pipeline, The Sabarmati Report. However, the film has faced delays in securing a theatrical release. Despite this setback, fans are eagerly awaiting Massey’s upcoming performances, particularly after seeing his dramatic transformation for Sector 36.
