Vicky Kaushal who worked with Alia Bhatt and filmmaker Meghna Gulzar for the first time in Raazi told DNA After Hrs, "I feel so blessed and happy to have worked with both of them because they are incredible women who inspire me and others." He also revealed that the team didn't expect such a fabulous response for the film. Vicky told DNA After Hrs, "We knew it would do well, magar itna achha kar jayegi, we hadn’t thought of. When I read the script, I was blown away and there was a beautiful feeling of gratitude in my heart for these people who live in anonymity to safeguard others. That, for me, is a huge selfless act of bravery. So, I said a silent thank you in my heart. And I’m so happy to read the reviews and see people sharing their feelings on social media after watching the film. This is exactly what we felt after reading the script and we were able to translate that on screen. It’s a surreal feeling."
