Talking about the same, Saif Ali Khan said, "So there were a couple of offers and kind of dried up, Rahul Rawail told me that, this is it. Nobody's going to work with you. And he was a bit sadistic, I must say, because he kind of enjoyed that. And I thought, okay, and they did dry up. And then Yash Chopra ji called me over and he went over and he said, I've heard you're very naughty, and you and you gotta give me your word. And he was casting Parampara with a lot of people in the movie."

KJo added, "There was Aamir, Raveena, Neelam, Vinod Khanna." Saif Ali Khan continued, "Sunil Dutt too and I knew that there was a huge multi starrer, and he wanted this role, he wasn't finding someone. And he met me and he said, You promised to be good. That was pretty much it. And I said, Of course, I promise you I will be. And he said, Okay, you're in the movie. And overnight, the office started. And you know how it is. If Yash Chopra is casting, then everyone comes. The same people who had said, "No, we're not interested, were very interested now. So he saved me."

The promos featuring these personalities have sparked enthusiasm among audiences, leaving them eagerly awaiting more from this beloved show.
