In a conversation with the media people, Riddhi revealed that the film, titled Abir Gulaal, also stars Vaani Kapoor. When asked if she had any hesitations about working with Fawad due to his nationality, Ridhi openly shared her thoughts: “I am proud to be an Indian. Since my childhood, everyone has said that I will move abroad… But I don’t want to move. If my country allow me then there is nothing wrong working alongside actors from other countries.”
