The first two-three days of shoot were crucial, because everyone was coming together for the film after playing different characters [in different films]. For instance, Kartik did Chandu Champion. Vidya was in her character since day one. When we took the first shot of Madhuri, everyone on the set clapped for her," recounted Anees.

The filmmaker further emphasized feeling confident because of his film's talented star cast. Even before the star cast was locked, Anees was confident that the team was working on creating something 'beautiful and special'. "They loved their characters, too," added Anees.
