Shewakramani said the father-daughter bond between Saif and Alaia's characters at the story's core is both unique and relatable.
"A father-daughter relationship is universal. I don't know about how different it is but the one depicted in Jawaani Jaaneman is definitely very unique, as well as new-age and contemporary," the co-producer added.
Saif and Alaia were recently spotted at the India-Pakistan World Cup match in Manchester. The Sacred Games star will sport an edgy crew cut and sleek bearded look for the film.
