Kunal Kohli completed shoot amid pandemic

For Lahore Confidential, Kohli took to Twitter in October and shared behind the scenes pictures from the set, where everyone was masked and maintained social distancing during the shoot. "(I) Self Drove to all locations. No driver. No one allowed to enter my car. For car tracking shots I drove along in my car with a monitor... On set, one chair only for me. That's sanitized not just daily but every time shifting happens on set. My monitor is separate no one allowed six feet near it or me," Kohli wrote.

The Hum Tum filmmaker said it took him a while to adjust to not being able to touch the camera and watch his actors perform from distance. "I love to operate the second camera at times. Couldn't do that. Also couldn't sit near the camera as I usually do to see the artists perform with 'bareeki.' Had to be at the monitor instead. In small or closed places, production got the place sanitized with a sanitizing gun in every break."
