The movie was a dark comedy and had a lot of bold and intimate scenes. The movie is inspired by the Ruskin Bond book Susanna’s Seven Husbands which also had many known actors working it namely Irrfan Khan, Naseeruddin Shah, John Abraham.
However, during the promotions of the film, the cast of the film Priyanka Chopra and Annu Kapoor got into a war of words. The controversy kicked when Annu Kapoor stated that Priyanka Chopra has refused to do any intimate scene with him. Addressing the same issue, Priyanka said that she is aware of Annu Kapoor’s interview where he has said that she refused to do Intimate scenes with him because he is not good-looking. “Agar main hero hota, then maybe she would have done intimate scenes with me. Because otherwise, she doesn’t have a problem doing intimate scenes with heroes. If talent goes out of the window, I guess you just need to be good-looking.”
Priyanka further added that such scenes were not part of the film and if Annu Kapoor wanted to do them, then he should work in those films.
