Deepika shared, "Did I think about how would we achieve the look, as it is very complicated, to achieve this kind of prosthetic, and to do justice to Laxmi on the screen, are the things that I was thinking about? I was not thinking about if my makeup looks fine or my hair looks fine or what would people think, or how my costumes would be. Only the technical part of it and the prosthetics as this is a prosthetics heavy film, and these are real-life characters."

She further added, "And this is the first time I am playing the role of a real-life character, to play the character with responsibility sensitivity justice and truthfulness were the thoughts in my head because in my mind Laxmi is also beautiful."

Deepika looked like a vision in white with some added bling and nude stilettos.
