He also disclosed that the actress broke her leg while shooting for it.

Sharing why Rohit decided to rope in Shilpa Shetty for a role initially designed for a hero, he said, “This character was earlier for a hero. But then, last moment, we called her when she was shooting for Sukhee in Chandigarh. Then she was doing India’s Got Talent, and she shuttled between all and made it happen. I knew she would be able to do it. She even broke her leg during an action scene,” he added.

She said, “I have done action before, but it was my first major fall. I feel so elated that Rohit thought of me to play Tara Shetty. My go-ahead was actually when I actually heard the name of the character. It was written so beautifully, and I’ve literally given an arm and a leg.”
