When asked to Ravi Chhabriya about how he worked with Diljit for his character and the language, the director said, “What is a detective? He has to be silent in most of the cases, he has to not expose himself majorly, and he himself is that way in real life. He’s a very calm, composed, yeh nahi ki shot ke pehle woh aake hassi mazaak kar rahe hai. He is so chill and so composed and so focused toh actually Paaji is that character. In real life he is calm, composed yet when he needs to be funny, he is super funny. So that helps Sherdil also because as a detective he’s very silent, very calm, just giving out smiles because itne hectic situations hote hai…”
