Speaking about the movie, director Nitesh Tiwari told Quint, " This was the closest to my heart at the time, and I have always followed my heart. Having spent four lovely years at IIT-Bombay's hostel, I had many experiences to draw upon. What I needed was a reason to look back on those memories for a meaningful purpose. Once that was cracked by our writers. The rest flowed."
The filmmaker also opened up about box-office numbers in an interview where he was quoted as saying, "As far as the box-office is concerned, we didn't know Dangal would become such a huge success. We made Dangal purely for the love of the story. We felt that the story needed to be told. We never kept the box-office result in mind, so there was never pressure when we made Dangal.
However, after the success of Dangal, the only pressure I would take would not be the box-office pressure. That would be unreal to have... to take that pressure. You can't say 'My film is going to perform so much at the box-office'. The only pressure and it is only human for me to feel that way is, I want to live up to the expectations of people. Whatever expectations they may have of me after Dangal. I hope I will be successful in exceeding their expectations."
Apart from Sushant and Shraddha, 'Chhichhore' also stars Tahir Raj Bhasin, Varun Sharma, Prateik Babbar, Navin Polishetty, Tushar Pandey and Saharsh Shukla.
