Aditya Sarpotdar on Kakuda' star cast
In an interview with Firstpost, filmmaker Aditya Sarpotdar said he wanted a unique star cast for Kakuda. He wanted a group of people who did a bit of comedy but never explored horror comedy.
Talking about Sonakshi's double role in the film, the director added, "So when we approached her, she had not done Heeramandi. So for us, it was like a very unique (factor) in the film. Also, the fact that she plays a character who wants to save her husband. So for me, it was something that really went well with the way I felt that she could carry it really well."
