During an interview, Rashmika Mandanna revealed that her phobia to being lifted made her uncomfortable and further stated, "I am someone who has a phobia of being lifted, I wasn’t very comfortable with people lifting me and here is the song where I am only being lifted. I had this thing of ‘how am I going to do this? I recently realised that if I make up my mind, I fully go and surrender to my director and co-actor. I was like, Let’s just do it. If this is what the film needs, let’s do it. Once you trust the man, it becomes fun".
