During a panel conversation, Katrina Kaif said, “It was always on my bucket list and one of my dreams to work with him (Sriram Raghavan) and I got the opportunity in Merry Christmas and it was phenomenal. By far, the most difficult film I have ever done. Definitely, the character took a lot out of me but the experience was something like he really challenges you as an actor. Also, it's a bilingual film. We shot the film in Hindi and Tamil. In Tamil version, I have actually spoken in Tamil. So it was two takes for whatever you were doing and that was really challenging but exciting.”

She added, “My co-star Vijay Sethupathi is so phenomenal. When we would do the Hindi take, he would be fantastic but when we would do the Tamil take, I would see a different actor.”

Produced by Ramesh Taurani and Jaya Taurani; Sanjay Routray & Kewal Garg, Merry Christmas is a collaboration that combines the vision and expertise of Tips Films and Matchbox Pictures. The film is all set to illuminate the silver screens on January 12, 2024.
