Talking about the character prep that Pooja did, she said she had to gain a lot of weight to play her part of a woman from a middle-class family. In an interview with ETimes Pooja spoke about her transformation for the role. She said, "The moment I was narrated the story, I was convinced of it. I knew that this was going to be challenging as well. I am into fitness all my life and now here I was having to gain some serious weight and becoming predominantly fat. It was challenging, but it was something I loved doing. I could eat anything and everything. The only thing I was worried about was my director telling me that he is disappointed with the effort. But he loved the effort and the results, so that's a huge validation for me. I guess and now the major one has to come from the audience."
