Sharing more details about the scene, and Ranveer’s visit to the set, Saswata told News18, “Deepika is just ever-smiling. There is a scene in the film where I drag her by the hair. It was part of the last leg of the shoot and was shot in Mumbai because Deepika was pregnant by then. Ranveer came on set wearing an ensemble that was orange from top to bottom – tee, pants and shoes! He radiates such an infectious positive energy – he just can’t stand in one place. There was a lot of physical tussle in the scene, so I told Ranveer, ‘Don’t worry, for more physically challenging scenes, there’s a body double.’ He was so polite and humble. He smiled and said, ‘I know, dada.’”

Deepika also filmed for the upcoming Singham Again during her pregnancy, but Ranveer would’ve been a constant presence on set, considering he’s one of the main stars of the film. Singham Again is the latest entry in filmmaker Rohit Shetty’s cop universe, and will be released in November, a couple of months after the birth of Deepika and Ranveer’s first child. Kalki, meanwhile, is closing in on the Rs 800 crore mark at the box office, after a blockbuster first week in theatres.
