When Anurag Basu was asked a question about Deepika's demand for an 8-hour work shift, he said, 'I am also not interested in working for long hours. My actors never complain about work stress or long hours. So I completely agree with Deepika's statement. This is a film, and I never give my actors a chance to complain during work.'
While talking to 'Firstpost' about his working style, Anurag said, 'I want my actors to be happy on the set and understand their character well. That's why I don't give them much information before shooting, so that they can discover their character naturally. I have always found this method right.' Anurag believes that being happy on the set also improves the acting of actors and actresses.

After Deepika's alleged dispute with the director of this film, sandeep Reddy Vanga, it was speculated that deepika had demanded 8-hour shifts during the shooting, a share in the film's profits, and not giving dialogues in Telugu. Disagreeing with these demands, the director later removed deepika from the film and cast tripti dimri in her place.
