“On the sets of the film, Mr Oberoi's transformation was so complete that he behaved like the character even when the camera was not on. So startling and complete was his physical and emotional transformation that members of the unit were taken aback,” the source further revealed.

Creative director of the film Sandip Ssingh said, “I wanted a versatile actor to play this role, Vivek made an unconventional debut with Company and also gave Saathiya, the same year. I wanted the actor to give me one year of his life before the shoot begins because the film ranges from the year 1957 to 2019 in order to understand the journey. Vivek gave 15 look tests that needed 7-8 hours of make-up each day. When an actor shows this dedication for the film, the filmmaker and the whole crew is extremely enthusiastic and encouraged to make the film.”
