Talking about her excitement of working with her fellow 'Saans' actor once again, Neena Gupta said: "I am working with Kanwaljeet Singh after a very, very long time and we don't even meet socially so I have not even met him for a long time. But we have such a good rapport that it didn't feel like we have not seen each other for so many years or not worked together."

She continued: "We were at ease with each other. This is a very beautiful thing between me and him that we are very much at ease. We both have good command of Hindi so we just see the scene and improvise. This is what we would do in 'Saans' also."

"The director was very open and very good and we had a lovely time, we joked around. It was a wonderful experience and I wish I could do more work with him. Things might have changed, it might have become digital but as actors it’s still the same. It was a wonderful experience just like it was in 'Saans'". she added.
