Alaia Furniturewalla, who arrived in London a week in advance to prepare for her role in the film, earlier told news agency IANS that she was "nervous" about co-starring with "established artistes" in the movie. She said: "I'm working with established artistes who I admire. So, I'm understandably nervous. To ease those nerves, Nitin sir (director Nitin Kakkar) thought it would be appropriate for me to observe things on set before I have to go in front of the cameras... It's daunting, but it makes every cell in my body dance."
Jawaani Jaaneman also stars Tabu and it is co-produced by Saif Ali Khan and Jackky Bhagnani. The film is slated for November 2019 release.
