While speaking to Rediff, Deepika had said, "We were shooting without co-stars, so I couldn't spend a lot of time with him. We actually got a day and a half together. I had to do only three days of work. What I really take back from my interaction with Rajini sir is his simplicity and his humbleness. This is something we can all learn. He is like a child in a candy shop. I have never seen an actor more excited than him on the sets."
