Development

The film was officially announced as an untitled romantic comedy on 20 December 2019. The first release date of the film was set to be on 26 March 2021.[4] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the release date was shifted to 18 March 2022.[5] Yet again, due to the delay in filming, the release date was shifted to Republic Day, 26 January 2023.[6] The final release date was decided to be on 8 March 2023, concurring with the Holi festival.[7]

Casting

Shraddha Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor[8] were cast as the leads, marking their first project together.[9] Dimple Kapadia and Boney Kapoor were cast as Ranbir's parents.[10] The film marks the latter's acting debut.[11] It will also mark the acting debut of stand-up comedian Anubhav Singh Bassi and the Hindi film debut of actress Monica Chaudhary.[12][13] Hasleen Kaur confirmed her presence in January 2023.[14]

Filming

The overseas schedule of the film commenced in June in Spain. That month, a video of Shraddha and Ranbir Kapoor filming a song in Spain was leaked on the internet.[18] The next schedule took place in Mauritius,[19] during which pictures of Shraddha Kapoor filming in a beach were leaked on the internet.[20]

In May 2022, it was reported that crew members protested due to non-payment of dues.[21] Ranjan denied the allegations.[22]

In July 2022, a song featuring Shraddha Kapoor was to be shot,[23] but production was stalled when a fire broke out at the film's set in Chitrakoot Grounds, Andheri.[24] It led to the death of a crew member named Manish Devashi, while another man from the lighting department was injured.[25] The song was shot after a few days. The film was wrapped up in August 2022.[26]
