Speaking about the incident, Namish said, “My character Ved, is carefree who shies away from responsibilities. He tries to explore different professions including becoming a  chef. The shot demanded me to cook something in the kitchen wherein I have to accidentally burn my hand. However, my cooking experiment went wrong in reality and I actually burnt my hand. The camera was rolling for the shot and the reactions captured turned out to be natural. Since there was a doctor available on the set, I was immediately given first aid and asked to rest.”
