This collaboration marks the production company's third venture with the streaming giant, following Eternally Confused and Eager for Love and Friday Night Plan.

Making its debut on December 26, it marks the directorial debut of Singh. Notably, Excel Entertainment also co-produced the 2016 film Baar Baar Dekho—starring Sidharth Malhotra and Katrina Kaif—whose song inspired the title of this film.

Earlier, glimpse of film was unveiled through surreal teaser
In 2021, a teaser for the film was released, presenting a montage of Panday, Chaturvedi, and Gourav casually spending time together, chatting on their phones, watching cartoons on a projector, and simply relaxing. Apart from exploring themes of friendship and romance, the movie also delves into the theme of rediscovering overlooked aspects of life. Filming for the project commenced in February 2022.
It's a very modern and unique story, too: Gourav
In an exclusive chat with OTTPlay, Gourav expressed his excitement for the project, saying, "It's a fresh film by Excel, and it has Chaturvedi and Panday. It's a friendship drama based in Mumbai. It's a very modern and unique story, too. I am very excited for that because I have never played a character that's, I wouldn't say, modern, but urban and so fresh." Meanwhile, this project marks the second collaboration between Panday and Chaturvedi, following Gehraiyaan.
