During the Q&A session, Ranveer Singh was asked by a fan how much time he took to learn Kathak for the movie. In Dhindora Baje Re, Ranveer performs the classical dance with Tota Roy Choudhury. It has become one of the talking points in the film. 

Responding to the question about his prep for the sequence, the actor said, "It took about a month. It was difficult to imbibe the essential grace in the dance form, given all the MUSCLE MASS that I was packing at the time (sic)."
