The film’s co-producer and director Neeraj Pandey said, “In the past, Madhurima had met us and auditioned for a film. I was quite impressed with her. While that film is still under work, as soon as the role in ‘Baby’opened up, we selected her as she fitted the ensemble film perfectly.”
Talking about the lead pair a source said, “The husband-wife relationship is uniquely crafted and has multiple layers of emotions. It’s a beautiful love story and several A-listers were vying for the role. But Neeraj wanted a fresh face.”
