Actor Udaybir Sandhu said he had never imagined that his role would receive such an overwhelming response in the beginning. Like many other actors, he admitted that he was initially concerned about the amount of screen time he would get, especially since he did not have many scenes in the film. Despite this, he believed that the scenes he was part of would leave a strong impact. He revealed that Aditya had expressed the same confidence in him, assuring him that his performance would stand out, and eventually, things unfolded exactly as predicted.

Praising Ranveer Singh, Udaybir said he is one of the smartest actors he has ever seen. He described Ranveer as extremely kind and someone who treated him like an elder brother. Udaybir shared that Ranveer guided him during every scene, helping him perform better. After their fight sequence was shot, Ranveer complimented him by saying, “You have a lot of energy.” He added that hearing such appreciation from Ranveer meant a lot to him and was a truly special moment.

Reiterating his experience, Udaybir once again said he had not expected such a strong response to his role at the start. He explained that he had focused on screen time like others because his scenes were limited. However, he remained confident that the scenes he had would make an impression. He recalled how Aditya had encouraged him by expressing faith in his performance, and ultimately, that belief turned into reality as audiences responded positively.

Once again speaking highly of Ranveer Singh, Udaybir repeated that he considers him among the most intelligent actors in the industry. He said Ranveer’s affectionate and supportive nature made him feel comfortable, almost like working with an elder sibling. He emphasized how Ranveer guided him through each scene and appreciated his efforts. The compliment he received after their fight sequence, praising his energy, remained one of the most memorable highlights of his journey.

Udaybir further repeated that he was initially unsure about the response to his role, as he had limited screen presence. Like others, he kept track of how much screen time he would get, but believed his scenes would still leave a mark. He said Aditya had assured him of the same and that prediction turned out to be accurate. Reflecting again on his experience with Ranveer Singh, he said the actor’s guidance, warmth and encouraging words, especially the compliment about his energy after their fight scene, made the experience unforgettable and deeply meaningful for him.
