When asked how much he enjoyed playing a character like this, Rajkummar Rao, who was spotted at the music launch of the movie, said, "As an actor, I try and do different thing in every film. Otherwise, it gets really boring. When Nitesh sir narrated me the script and when Ashwini told me about the story, I was damn excited. I felt that this character is quite special and unique. To show these two personality traits in one film, it was something I did not think of doing earlier."

With variety of performances in films like Raabta, Behen Hogi Teri, Aligarh and Trapped, Rajkummar has proved that he can readily take on any challenge thrown at him.

The actor also shared that he just wants to establish himself as an actor first anything like dancing comes after that.
