Asked about his 'explosive chemistry' with Taapsee in the film, Harshvardhan Rane said in an interview with News18, "Taapsee is a good actress. It was written in a certain way. There was a lot of sexual tension written. It was written and designed in a certain way. I don't think I've added anything to that. I was nervous about the proximity initially, but she being a professional made it very comfortable."

Taapsee added, "I was very worried, it would look like this girl is extremely desperate. I knew that both the guys in the film are like this 'mr goody two shoes', very docile, very sweet. But with the kind of chemistry I'm required to have with the both of them, I think I'll have to take the initiative. So I was the one going out there and making sure that they don't feel that something is going awkward with me..."

Taapsee said that she had to behave in a way that communicated that they were simply doing their jobs and that there was nothing to be uncomfortable about. She said that she used to ask director Vinil Mathew, "I think these guys are going to think I'm creepy. 'She's one weird, creepy woman'."
