"The film is set in the 90s. We have Manoj sir playing a wedding detective, who does a background check of grooms, which was a norm during those times. There was a time when there was no mobile phone or social media and people had to deal with everything physically. "It is very much in the vein of films made by Hrishkesh Mukherjee and Basu Chatterjee. It is a clean family-comedy. It is a funny film but not slapstick. It is a social satire,” Sharma told PTI.

The director who has also helmed some previous satirical comedy projects like Tere Bin Laden told the agency that the new film's title was also derived using the wordplay technique. "It points towards the Rashi (zodiac sign), kundali (horoscope), that we talk about more during the wedding. At the same time, it is about the cat and mouse between Suraj, which is played by Diljit and Mangal, essayed by Manoj sir." The film cast also includes seasoned and veteran artistes like Annu Kapoor, Manoj Pahwa, Seema Pahwa, Vijay Raaz, and Supriya Pilgaonkar.
