The source had said, “A huge set – including a replica of the Delhi international airport- has been erected at the Ruby Tower in Dadar area of South Mumbai. The shoot went on for a couple of days from early morning till late evening. There were some important sequences in the film where the crowd is seen cheering up the rather dejected cricketer. The shoot involved a lot of junior artists despite which all the necessary Covid protocols were being followed.”

Meanwhile, Taapsee Pannu has several projects in her kitty. She will be seen in the Tamil films Jana Gana Mana and Alien, Anurag Kashyap’s Dobaaraa, the Telugu film Mishan Impossible, Blurr and Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan?
