Talking about the preparation of his character,  Vikrant told Firstpost, “Very challenging, although I don’t say things like these too much; this one particular character was very demanding. For example, I had to learn the language and the dialect which everyone has to do but I had to go the extra mile because Vinod Chopra didn’t want any makeup, he wanted me to naturally darken my skin as much as possible. To achieve that, I would apply mustard oil and sit on my terrace and sun bathe, and wait for my skin to peel off just like onion peel.”
