Despite being more selective about her projects due to her age, Farida Ji was immediately drawn to this film upon reading the script, recognizing it as a wholesome family entertainer. Throughout her illustrious career, she has consistently chosen roles in films that appeal to all generations, from the iconic 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham' (2001) to 'Batti Gul Meter Chalu' (2018).

Directed by Ahmed Khan, the film boasts an impressive ensemble cast featuring Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, Shreyas Talpade, Johnny Lever, Raveena Tandon, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Disha Patani.
