Tabu, Kareena and Kriti receive specialised training for Crew 

In a conversation with Republic, Mehul and Nidhi explained that the preparation of Crew was meticulous with Tabu, Kareena, and Kriti “receiving specialised training from seasoned air hostesses, adding authenticity to their performances.” “They had former cabin crew members on set for a few days to help with authenticity," the writers further added.

They lauded the actresses for paying close attention to what was being taught. They said, “Tabu, Kareena and Kriti paid close attention, asking questions and ensuring accuracy in their portrayal through constant communication with the team”.

Crew director on why it is important to put the spotlight on air hostesses

Earlier, in a candid conversation Crew director Rajesh A Krishnan opened up about wanting to bring forth the story of air hostesses who often get sandwiched between big government deals and the means of the airline industry. The director further promised that the film will be sparking an appreciable balance between a message and entertainment value. 

He said, "They come in, in the hope and faith that, 'my company will look after me'; Because when they are up in the air, it's a myth that air hostesses have a very glamorous life. It's not a glamorous life. If you have to trade your sleep and work like maids in the sky, you avoid the gaze of all the people. If you look at what's happening to the airline business, an airport is the new railway station today. The air hostesses have to cater to or rather deal with a variety of people."
