She is such an amazing actress that she told me, 'Ache se pakad aur kheench'." Darshan was also filming for Mary Kom, featuring Priyanka Chopra in the title role of the legendary Indian boxer. In this biopic, Darshan played Mary Kom's husband Onler Kom.

Darshan said that when Anushka and Priyanka met on the sets of Dil Dhadakne Do in his absence, they discussed his nature, While Priyanka called him a "sweet", Anushka said that she hadn't seen a person "more rude than him". "They argued over me. With both of them, I was in my character at that time. I was Satbir at that time and never greeted Anushka. It was part of my process. She thought I have an attitude. I met her during the promotions in New Delhi. Her mind was changed and she thought I am very sweet."
