On his Instagram account, Nakuul shared a collection of pictures along with a heartfelt message, revealing that he thoroughly enjoyed embodying Bobby Bagga.
Mehta expressed, “We created Do You Wanna Partner during the sweltering heat of Mumbai and Delhi in May, June, and July 2024. Everything else about it was enjoyable. I genuinely had an incredible time portraying, experiencing, and finding the rhythm of Bobby Bagga, a true departure from my past roles. This is my first collaboration with Dharmatic and Prime Video! The team was filled with the warmest individuals I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Period. @apoorva1972 @somenmishra @madhoknikhil @peekayohho.”
“When I first auditioned for @kumararchit, I knew I was in good hands. He is very thoughtful in his direction and truly encourages exploration. I am thankful for this partnership. Captain @collindcunha then brought a vibrant energy that inspired spontaneity and allowed us to be present without overthinking! It was a joy to be around him on set! @panchamighavri excels in many roles & I appreciate your unique casting choices and faith in me. Thank you, @anubhavvbansall, for being a brilliant DP with the grace of a dancer behind the camera. I loved watching you at work!”
Nakul continued, “@leepakshiellawadi, it’s amazing how life comes full circle, from our first projects to you styling me now! I’m grateful to you and your incredible team. @uvichar_ spent a whole day with me in Delhi before we started filming, treating me to delicious rajma chawal and allowing me to ask countless questions about life as an East Delhi boy! @sahil_anand_arora was phenomenal on hair and makeup every day. Thank you, @realmushtakeemkhan, for being my right hand throughout the filming process and making everything seamless! I truly value you. @pratik.kanxara for being the real-life Bobby to my Bagga! Thank you for introducing me to the beer culture and showing me the ropes. Fun fact: He was shocked when I admitted I don’t drink beer the first time we met, but he changed that during filming. An amazing production and direction team. Anand, Richa, and everyone… Our brews are now yours. As Bobby would say, Oye Chak Lein.”
Directed by Archit Kumar and Collin D’Cunha, this Amazon Prime Video series also stars Tamannaah Bhatia, Diana Penty, Javed Jaffrey, Shweta Tiwari, Nakuul Mehta, and Rannvijay Singha.
