Though the film was announced back in 2019, Taapsee couldn't start the filming for the film due to date conflicts and other commitments. Aparshakti Khurana is known to play supporting characters in films like Pati Patni Aur Woh and Stree and is slated to play the male lead. This will be the first time Aparshakti Khurana will be seen essaying the lead role in a film.

Taapsee Pannu will be seen essaying the character of a sprinter in the film, going back to her athletic mode which she showcased in 2018's Soorma. Rashmi Rocket is expected to hit the silver screen in 2020 but no date has been finalised yet. Taapsee Pannu is reportedly shooting for Haseen Dillruba and Rashmi Rocket simultaneously.
