A source close to producer Sajid Nadiadwala told DNA, “Sajid has asked Jacqueline Fernandez to come on board as one of the heroines opposite Varun. People loved her and Varun’s chemistry in Dishoom although they weren’t paired opposite each other in the film. Sajid felt it’s the right pair for the film, and Jackie being an in-house favourite (she was also in Kick and Housefull 3) was his immediate go-to person.”
