After the Supreme Court of India's decision to scrap Section 377, films such as this is a right move. Sheer Qorma is surely going to break many taboos and stereotypes in the society. Earlier in an official statement, the director of the film, Faraz Ansari had talked about choosing Divya and Swara to play same-sex love partners. His statement read, "Divya and Swara are two celebrated names in the industry and strong allies of the LGBTQIA+ community. It was an easy decision to approach them. In fact, when I started writing the film, I had Divya in my mind, and already saw her playing this role. The day I finished the script, I put up a status on Instagram saying I need someone to play the role, and Divya was actually the first person to call me. It was kind of bizarre that both of them were thinking on the same lines. Without even reading the script, she said she wanted to do the film."
