Talking about his preparations for the movie, Sidharth said: “We are using assault rifles which are designed for commandoes and are lightweight. Portraying action sequences was challenging. ‘Yahan bahut khoon paseena bahaya hai’.” Reminiscing a behind-the-scene incident, Sidharth, known for his work in Mission Majnu, said: “I remember a sequence when I had fallen before doing action, and my elbow was swollen. But yet we were wearing a jacket and still doing the shots where we touched each other’s elbows and it would pain. That was the physical aspect of it.” Sidharth Malhotra's Red Carpet Looks That Prove He's 'Munda Kamaal Da'.

He added: “This is the kind of action I have not done in any other film. So that took a lot of blood and sweat. I hope the audience enjoys my new avatar.” ‘Yodha’ will be the first part of an action franchise headlined by Sidharth. It is jointly produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta, and Shashank Khaitan. The film is set to release on March 15.
