Actor Piyush Mishra also stressed that he strictly followed the writer-director’s instructions and did not improvise in that highly emotional scene. He shared, “We performed it exactly as Imtiaz had written it in the script. We did it literally 16 times. However, those were not retakes. This is Imtiaz Ali’s weird process. He does not do retakes.”

Piyush further revealed how the sequence was shot during the conversation. He said, “During the shoot, Imtiaz would tell us to keep doing it and would say that he will take whatever he likes. He trusted me and Ranbir and we had a great rapport. We kept doing it and finally, he included what he liked the most in the film. But that speech was very long. We had to work very hard to do it exactly the way it was. Still, it was a lot of fun. Working with Imtiaz Ali is always fun.”
