Her cousin, Priyanka Chopra tweeted her post along with the statement, “Super proud @ParineetiChopra cannot wait to watch!! ❤️🔥.”

Director Amole Gupte had recently spoken about how Shraddha Kapoor was his first choice for the film. It was after she pulled back from the project that Parineeti came on board.

“It was just a quirk of fate. While Shraddha was shooting with us for the first two days–all prepped up to play Saina–she got dengue. And with that, she went deep down and was in recovery for a month. Because this is a sports film, she can’t come and do some emotional scenes, she has to play the sport,” he added.
