In an interview with Jist, Ali said, "For Guddu, I had to almost fight with my director at the time that I don't see him having hair. My most boring time in my life was working out for Mirzapur. I couldn't sleep. We would work out for three hours every day and while doing that, you have to maintain your peace because we are creators. I refused using the wrong means."
