Nadiadwala stated in a statement that the 29-year-old performer is the “perfect match” for the female lead role in the film. “We believed Pooja was the perfect match for ‘Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali’ after working with her in ‘Housefull 4’. It’s her first time working with Salman, so the tale will be new. She has a strong screen presence as well as excellent work ethic,” he stated.

Salman will appear in an entirely different persona in ‘Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali.’ The design is presently being finalised. Pooja Hegde also appears in the film. She portrays a typical small-town girl opposing Salman’s persona.
