Speaking to Firstpost about the casting of the film, Karan said, “There was an entire audition process that happened for six months because it’s a huge cast. The goons you see in the film are not just doing action, the second half of the film is their story and they had to emote a lot. This entire process took six months since there are about 40-43 people.”
