He further revealed that they realized they couldn't proceed without a replacement, so they quickly reached out to Saif .

He explained the situation, “So in the evening, we went to Saif’s house, that you listen to the film. He listened to it and said yes. We told him that we will start shooting tomorrow."

He said "okay, no problem’. We had already done Kachche Dhaage with him and he was very happy. Because Saif’s casting was last-minute, there wasn’t any time to get his wardrobe ready."

"So, they requested Saif to bring his own clothes. we asked him show us your clothes. We selected his clothes and we told him please bring these clothes and come to the set tomorrow and we started shooting,” Kumar added.
