To get into the skin of her character, the actress took up Kathak lessons to hone her dancing skills.'

Recently in an exclusive chat with Filmibeat, Vaani was all praise for her co-star Ranbir and had said, "There's a lot of sincerity and honesty in his performance. He is very true to his parts. You can see his dedication and yet, he makes it look so effortless." She had also talked about Sanjay Dutt and called him a 'lovely human being and amazing actor."

Earlier this year, director Karan Malhotra had brushed off reports about Shamshera heading for an OTT release.
