Earlier in an interview, Parineeti had talked about how Akshay is as a co-star. She said that he goes out of his way to do that. "I can expect it from the newer boys, but he is a veteran and doesn’t really need to go out of his way to make actresses or crew comfortable and happy, yet he does. So, within the first few days you realise he is a beautiful person,” she said.

Kesari has been directed by Anurag Singh. It is slated to release on March 21, 2019.
