Chaitanya said, “Somehow it has a connection with my granddad. So I guess it’s just very magical.” The video also showed how the makers took Akkineni Nageshwara Rao’s pictures for reference while deciding on a look for Chaitanya’s character.

While Aamir Khan shared his insights, the video showed Naga Chaitanya experimenting with several approaches during the look test. Aamir and Chaitanya might be seen recording their parts together. In the video, Aamir spoke highly of Chaitanya and his upbringing while praising the actor.

Aamir said, “I’m really grateful to Chay for doing this film. As a producer, I got so much comfort working with him. He’s a team player who is always standing by his team, and as an actor, he is so on the ball. He’s so focused and engrossed in his shot… I called his father, Nagarjuna, and mother, Lakshmi, and told them ‘you two have raised Chay so well. You should be really proud as parents. He is such a wonderful human being.'”
