“I think she is very hard working. She is very sincere and has a huge heart. We have pulled her leg a lot and she is such a sport. Bhumi always participates, which is amazing. It is an amazing characteristic to have. She is a brilliant performer – we all know that. But the way we got to know her through this film was the Bhumi I never would have ever imagined,” Rajkumar said about his honest impression of Bhumi.
“We wanted to make people comfortable. We are not telling them what’s right or wrong. We are talking about the choices and the journey of the characters making those choices. We didn’t want people to empathize with the characters, but wanted to go deep into it and ensure that people turn into an ally. I am glad that people are appreciating it,” he said about the film.
In an interview with PTI, Pednekar said she agreed to do the film half way through its narration as she saw the potential of the project to speak to a large audience.

“What really jumped out for me was that, it is a big franchise which stands for speaking about things that usually make people uncomfortable, but something that we need to accept and normalise.”
“There is a lot of humour in the film, even in the narration I could not stop laughing. But the humour is not degrading, not there to titillate. It is not at the expense of the community”.
