Sunny was a superstar, but much older than me. People questioned how I could be paired opposite someone so much older," she said.Ameesha shared that she needed the story to be convincing in order to justify the age-gap romance in the film, and the relationship between Tara Singh and Sakina worked because the age difference was integral to the narrative. She further explained that Sunny's character, Tara, was already a working man who had fallen in love with a girl while she was still studying at a convent school.She said, “Age gaps are absolutely fine if the story needs them and justifies them.
