In an interview with Mid-Day, Boney confirmed, “When Luv and his team were writing the script, they had a simple reference point for the character of Ranbir’s father — ‘somebody like Boney Kapoor’. One fine day, they thought, why not have Boney play the role?” He further added, “Luv insisted I do the role. He reached out to Arjun, who persuaded me for it. While the team will be shooting at a stretch in Delhi, they have given me the liberty to fly down to Mumbai and attend to my productions.”
