Sargun Mehta recalled that she and Ravi Dubey wrote Udaariyaan without any prior experience. However, Ravi gave her full credit for the effort.
Speaking about a financial setback, Sargun shared, “Udaariyaan ke waqt we emptied our accounts. And humara jab set baan raha tha, kisine fraud kiya 70 lakhs. I remember mein set se bahar nikli and Ravi was at shoot for Matsya Kaand.”
She added, “I had a huge fight with the art director, and my security was holding me only because I was so angry at them. And humara show on air jaane wala tha 15 din mein. And it looked like a blank floor.”
Sargun recalled breaking down in the car, questioning whether becoming producers was the right decision or if they had taken on too much responsibility. However, Ravi remained calm and supportive. She shared, “Ravi was being calm and said, ‘Gayi na? Nazar utar gayii, aa jayega kaam karo. Dobara kama lenge.’ Those 4-5 months was a nightmare.”
For those unaware, Udaariyaan featured Priyanka Chahar Choudhary, Ankit Gupta, Abhishek Kumar, and Isha Malviya, among others.
