Talking about GV Sharada’s casting, Spokesperson from Zee Studios and Eyecandy Films say:

“It was amazing to see such a seasoned actress have her level of enthusiasm. She went through the entire casting process just like anyone else wanting to do the role would – meetings, screen tests – the works. She was even asked to lose some weight which she took up and did with so much grace. For someone in her 70s, it is a mean feat but she was willing to make it all happen. We are delighted to have her as part of our film’s cast which is now a wonderful blend of young pulsating energy and the depth and balance of experience.”
