The makers of the film have released a BTS video on Amazon Prime Video’s YouTube channel where each of the four actors, Deepika Padukone, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday and Dhairya Karwa talk about their characters.

With the acting classes and script reading sessions, that were held as part of the intimacy workshops, she could understand the part that she played better.

Actor Siddhant Chaturvedi said that director Shakun Batra was the ‘captain of the ship’, and it was his suggestion of associating a particular song to an emotion that helped him in connecting with the role as it was a trigger for unleashing emotions.

You tweak one line, one emotion, and everything changes, like a domino effect, because all of us are connected.

For Ananya Pandey, the song suggestion helped her in enhancing the feelings the characters had towards one another.

Dhairya Karwa talked about how each character in the film is relatable and the audience will connect with them all because they are very much like people we have around us. Deepika also said that there’s honesty in the characterization.
