"We had a fantastic and safe Mumbai schedule and our Delhi-NCR one is super smooth as well. It is also quite evident from our behind-the-scenes video that while we are having a great time, we also took necessary precautions," Saqib said, adding that the film has a fresh concept.

Shweta added: "We are among the few films that have started shooting during the lockdown and are able to achieve success despite the circumstances. It's been a challenging time for everyone, but we are adapting to the new normal. Fewer staff and social distancing are a must! I feel lucky to be back in front of the camera."
