“We all as a team we’re all so excited to begin work on the film. The young vibrant sporty look is what Karan wanted for the film. We went shopping to London for all three actors.. During fittings with Kajol I came out with the idea that we will keep the front of the sports apparel but the backs would be constructed with zips to give Kajol the best fit.. The first day of the film her wig was heavy it’s only by the third day it settled in. Karan would give SRK the fittings of what we had shopped in London. Rani’s entire look was a challenge she was very new and we had to work on the glam look.. All the three actors gave the film a lot of love and Karan’ from his first film would keep the atmosphere light and fun,” he wrote.
