It took a long time for Zoya to put her film together, as there were many stars involved. Besides, Zoya had initially cast Madhuri Dixit in the film. When she stepped down, Tabu was approached. Finally, Zoya cast Konkona. Saif Ali Khan and Vivek Oberoi were also approached for the film. But they asked Zoya to change the climax. That’s when brother Farhan stepped in, and the film was on its way.
