Geetu Mohandas opens up about Huma Qureshi's character

Helmed by Geetu Mohandas, she spoke about the casting of Huma and said her role was difficult to cast as it required a strong performer. However, when they cast her, she brought the character to life from the moment she appeared on screen. "Casting for this role was perhaps the trickiest. The character demanded a performer with high-octane calibre and an undeniable presence. From the moment Huma entered my frame, I knew she possessed something rare. She carried an effortless sophistication and intensity that immediately brought the character of Elizabeth alive for me," said Mohandas, as per the release.
