The actress shared that it was kind of obvious as she was doing a film, which is a franchise of the movie that Deepika had done before. She added that Veronica and Ally have somewhat similar energy, being slightly disruptive, unhinged, and free-spirited. However, she clarified that both the characters are very different, adding that she was glad for the same. Kriti questioned why she would play the same character that Deepika has already done?
