Danish revealed that it took eight to nine hours to transform into Bade Sahab. He said, "Everyone used to say Ranveer is full of energy. But when I first met him, he was so cordial and warm. When that scene was being shot, he saw me, and everyone on set was like, ‘Oh my God, what is this?’ Before the make-up, he saw me. Then he saw me after make-up, and they were all like, ‘Ye kya ho gaya?’ They are professional actors. They know what is required to carry this much make-up."

He further spoke about Ranveer as a co-star and said, "He was very cooperative. And after every take, he used to come to me and say, ‘Brilliant, sir’. So, there is one ‘brilliant’ which you just say for the heck of saying it. But then you can actually feel that this appreciation and warmth—he means it. He is such a lovely and cordial person."
