While talking about Rajeev's character, Sanjiv told The Asian Age, “I couldn’t have found a better actor than Rajeev who suited the character perfectly. His character starts with a naive middle-class boy who wants to be an IAS officer and turns into a rugged gangster. He slipped into both the characters with ease and actors like Atul, Abhimanyu and Vikram have added the needed grit into the drama.” He further added that the cop look of the actor is 'small but pivotal part of the plot'.

Pranaam is produced by Anil Singh, Nitin Mishra and Rajnish Ram Puri under banner Rudraksh Adventures Pvt Ltd. Apart from Rajeev, the film also stars Atul Kulkarni, Abhimanyu Singh, Vikram Gokhale, and Aniruddh Dave in pivotal roles. The cop drama is scheduled to release on 9 August.
