Speaking to Media, Talented Actor, Shahid Kapoor said,

“It is a little sad story. For six months, I had stayed in these houses which had those asbestos roofs. I had that time in life for six months and we had to live there. And there would be power cuts. In the afternoon, it is used to so hot that we used to be sitting in the house sweating.”

Gorgeous Shraddha Kapoor said,

“Well with the film being inspired by real events, Shree Narayan Singh and writers Garima and Siddharth did extensive research to do justice to the story. Since it is set in Uttarakhand, the dialogues are laced with Garhwali, one of the dialects of the state. In a bid to retain authenticity, not only was the film shot in Tehri, but every actor was made to take lessons in the language.”
