Commenting on the association, Siddharth Roy Kapur, CEO of UTV Motion Pictures said, “Anurag shared this script with us and we instantly fell in love with the characters and the world that the writer Sumit Batheja has created. Very few stories can make you laugh out loud one moment and bring a lump in your throat the next, and Luv Shuv maintains that delicate balance of humour and emotion throughout. We’re happy to be collaborating with Anurag after two huge successes together in Dev.D and Udaan, and here’s to a hat trick!”
Anurag Kashyap adds, “Together we have done some really good stuff starting with Aamir and then Dev D and Udaan. And we hope to repeat the same with Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana.”
