When asked about his off-camera bond with Radhika Apte, given that their Saali Mohabbat characters Smita and Ratan Pandit have a tense, unpredictable, and layered rapport, Divyendu Sharma shared, “Thankfully, my chemistry with Radhika was nothing like what you see on screen. She’s very easygoing. We had only a few scenes together, but they were all really meaty scenes. I think we shared a mutual admiration for each other’s work. I’ve always liked her as an actor, there was no difficulty or awkwardness at all.”
