Describing his role in the movie, Saif had said , “My character is a failed Naga sadhu, who has strong notions of revenge… I even got my ears pierced for the role, which I was worried about initially. My hair has grown a lot. It bothered me throughout summer, when I was shooting in Rajasthan’s sweltering heat.”
