When it was Vikrant's turn he opted for books instead, he said, "We have all grown up on Sidney Sheldon and Archer's, Grisham's and Agatha Christie of course! There are books that come before a film, you could pick up any Sidney Sheldon novel that I've enjoyed reading and the setup, time of the day, the atmosphere spikes up your experience in a genre like this."
Meanwhile, Chitrangda also spoke about how director Pawan Kripalani created the right atmosphere on set that compelled his actors to give their best. "The director is so in love with this genre, he loves his script, his characters and the whole atmosphere. He had a particular music for each scene and remembered it perfectly. There is a swimming pool sequence that is very important for my character and there was separate soundtrack for just that scene! We were shooting nights so we went on till 5am and he just played it the whole time. As much as you think it's fine it does start to affect you. It's amazing how much he made us believe in our characters."
