Ahead of the film's release, Janhvi Kapoor shared a behind-the-scenes (BTS) video from the set on Instagram.

[It is done, right?]”, and “Aaj ke liye itna hi footage milega [That's all the footage you'll get for today.]”. Later, she shifts to a more serious tone, asking, “I wanna know what you are capturing?” and “kitna close up lega? [How much of a close-up shot are you going to take?]”. Towards the end, she mentions a self-written poem she prefers not to be recorded.
Accompanying the post, Janhvi wrote, “I was clearly losing my mind on set on most days…#MrandMrsMahi out tomorrow book your tickets now!”
Directed by Sharan Sharma, the movie tells the compelling story of Mahima, a doctor who marries a failed but talented cricketer named Mahendra.
