Tiger Shroff further touted the action sequences as most difficult saying, "Most challenging action schedule of my life." Explaining the challenges in shooting Tiger Shroff said, "It was very difficult to manoeuvre into five-ten jump around every now and then, it was raining every now and then, so we used to fight fight, quickly take  a shot when the cloud used to come, it would start to rain, my body used to cool down, again I would warm up and go out there when the sun came out, so it was very challenging."

Revealing details of the action sequences, Tiger Shroff shared, "The climax sequence is about 15-16 minutes of pure action so that took a really lot of me."
