Expressing his excitement over reuniting with Excel Entertainment after Dil Chahta Hai, the actor told the entertainment portal, "I am looking forward to working with them because we have not done a film together since Dil Chahta Hai. They are so organized and have a lovely work atmosphere for the actors. I am really looking forward to getting into Fire."

Further during the course of the conversation, Saif opened up on his idea of script selection and the idea of going more commercial with his movies. The Bhoot Police star said, "I have noticed that a lot of roles that I am doing, and this is what I mean by being commercial, can be represented by an emoticon on the phone chat. For Bhoot Police, there is a ghost, for Adipurush, there is a red devil, a cop for Vikram Vedha and for Fire, there's a fireman too. I think the next role that I chose has to be an emoticon."
