Chandni on bond with Ananya Panday
Talking about her off-screen bonding with Ananya, Chandni said, "She is extremely sweet and a darling. She is very beautiful. When you see her in person, her skin glows. She looks like a Disney princess. We had a fun bonding; we used to sit together and talk about random things. Kartik and Ananya even pranked me once."
Recalling Ananya's reaction to her mimicry, Chandni added, "She is pretty chill. I even did her mimcry in front of her once. She was like Arey Chandni, everyone does this one, you show me something else. She is like very sorted. She reads her books on set when she gets time."

Chandni also praised Kartik Aaryan's work ethic, saying, "Kartik is also an extremely hardworking guy. Nobody knows when Kartik sleeps because he is a crazy, mad person who is constantly working. He will take care of everybody on set. He's extremely sweet and a proper gentleman. He makes sure you are comfortable on screen and later even gives compliments like Chandni yeh scene tune mast kiya tha (you did this scene well). He tells you how you can improvise."
She further added, "He is a full team player. He is extremely hardworking. During the shoot of Saat Sumandar and all of that medley, he had a 102 fever. He had popped ant-allergic and Dolo. He was not feeling well at all, but he didn't make it seem like he was not well. The dedication he has to his art is incredible."
