The portions of Dutt, who plays the main character in the movie, have already been shot and dubbed, it is learnt.

The film also features R Madhavan, Dia Mirza, Sanjay Suri, Gul Panag and Mandira Bedi, among others. Gupta is keen to complete and reach it to the cinemas because it’s his first ‘slice-of-life film’ (as he’s called it). It is also said to be close to his heart.
