Summary

Abhishek plays a guy with an insatiable roving eye. Aishwarya agrees to let her husband play the field on screen.[6]

The film was offered to Aishwarya five years ago. It could not materialize due to her scheduling conflicts. But the movie got delayed and with Abhishek and Rajji on board, I’m happy to be back, she said. As far as this script is concerned, it was always a yes.[7]

Says Santoshi, "I had actually offered this film to Aishwarya five years ago. And look at destiny. It's come back to her. Every role is earmarked for a particular actor. I feel Aishwarya is perfect for this film. Though Aishwarya has done comedy before, this is a new genre for Abhishek and for them as a pair."[8]

The film will be shot across Mumbai, Rome, New York and Malaysia.[9]
