In an interview with Hindustan Times, the filmmaker said, “She was written as an Indian character, and Huma is a really amazing actress, no two ways about it. We talked about who we could get, and the casting director brought her up. I watched some of her material, and I was like, 'this actress is amazing'.” He then added, “I was so happy, and finally, having her on set, she was like, you know, I want only Indian actors in my movies from now on."
