Calling her part "relatable" yet something she has never previously attempted, Monica said, "My look in the film also is very different from all the other work that I have done. When I heard the script and the character for the first time, I was instantly intrigued by the nature of the film and my character being so unpredictable. Sunny has been a wonderful co-actor and I had so much fun shooting Risky Romeo. Now I am eagerly waiting for the world to see it."

Actor Sunny Singh said he loved working with Monica, who he added came on the sets with so much enthusiasm that it was infectious. "The passion with which she dives into her character is amazing. While doing the readings with her during our prep I knew that it was going to be a lot of fun shooting with her and I am extremely happy about the fact that Monica plays one of the most important parts in Risky Romeo," Sunny said.

Director Abir Sengupta said casting for Monica's part was extremely "tricky" but the actor truly surprised the filmmaker by understanding the character adding a lot of depth to it. "Initially it was getting very tricky for me to cast for Monica’s part. I was quite particular about the actor getting it right and then I met Monica who surprised me with her effortlessness and ease with which she performs. And the most important factor was that she understood the depth of the character very well. She gave a lot of time for readings & discussions before the shoot and then, it was a smooth journey for us on the sets. She is a total surprise in Risky Romeo," he added.

The film, also starring Kriti Kharbanda, is backed by producers Anushree Mehta (Jaadugar Films), Priyanka Mehrotra and Rameshchadra Yadav (PR Motion Pictures). Risky Romeo has wrapped its filming and is currently in the post-production stage.
