The film was supposed to go on floors on October 1, 2017 and end by November 30. However, in August the actor walked out of the film citing date issues.

I wish the producers all the very best for the project.”

Back then the actor had several other projects on his plate including Kedarnath, Drive, Chanda Mama Door Ke and Sonchiriya. In November, there were reports of Abhishek Bachchan replacing the actor. However, come March 2018, it was finalized that John Abraham will be the lead actor of Romeo Akbar Walter(RAW).
