Ahead of the release of the film, talking about the similarities between him and his character Srikant, Pratik said, "I don’t see many similarities between Pratik and Srikant. Srikant is a Maharashtrian person. The one similarity between the two is that even Srikant is a stage person. He is a standup comedian. Pratik also started with stage. Rest everything is different. Both come from two different worlds. Srikant’s reactions on love, on the world is completely different from that of Pratik".
