Deepika aced both portrayals and in a recent interview, the director was asked which character is closer to his heart. “See, Shakti Shetty abhi toh, aage kuch kahani banegi, but obviously, at present, if you ask me, Meenamma will be very close to my heart,” Shetty said, reminiscing about his favorite character from the film. He also touched upon the process of cracking the perfect comedic performance, noting that comedy often requires time and a deep understanding between the director and actor.
Shetty also revealed in another chat with Mukesh Chhabra, that after four days of shooting, Deepika finally embraced the character’s quirks, shedding initial apprehensions and delivering a performance that matched the film’s comedic essence – and with so much hard work put into perfecting it, that’s how we got the perfect ‘Bakwaass dictionary’ dialect of Meenamma that received love and will stay iconic always.
