Film Development & Casting
The film marks the third collaboration between Rai and Dhanush. Rai decided to cast Dhanush once more because, in his opinion, the actor is a perfect fit.[7] [8][9][10] In February 2025, Kriti Sanon was selected as the female lead. Himanshu Sharma and Neeraj Yadav co-wrote the dialogue, story, and screenplay. This movie is regarded as Raanjhanaa's spiritual continuation. Although it was first announced in June 2023, Dhanush's hectic schedule prevented filming from starting until October 2024, with the exception of a promo shoot.
Film Shooting
In June 2023, on the tenth anniversary of Raanjhanaa, the promo video was shot, and principal photography started in October 2024.[11]Kriti joined the film in February 2025, and it was shot in Banaras and Delhi. The movie is currently in post-production after filming concluded in July 2025. A few scenes that were shot at Shri Ram College of Commerce went viral. The last phase of the Leh schedule was shot in Mumbai in April 2025.[12]
