Opening up on the experience of shooting with Venkatesh, Naga Chaitanya replied, "Though Venky Mama is a jovial person, he is a completely different man when he comes before the camera. To work with him is really a very tough task. The way he emotes different expressions is amazing.” About Suresh Daggubati, the Majili star shared, “Suresh Babu is very strict when it comes to working. He used to inspect all the rooms after pack-up of shoot. Daily after the shoot, he enquires what exactly we were doing." 

At the pre-release event, Rana had revealed, "My grandfather (Ramanaidu Daggubati) would have scolded me if he was here for not acting alongside Chaitanya and Venkatesh. He always wished to see alongside each other in a movie."
