Kunal further said that because of the extreme cold weather conditions in Poland, the movie's hit number 'Mere Haath Mein' had to be re-shot again.

Also, remember the amazing shaayris uttered by Aamir throughout the movie? Well, here is how they became a part of the script-
#10YearsOfFanaa the original script by Shibani Bhatija didn’t have Rehan @aamir_khan saying shairi,I got it in while writing the dialogues
