The film will be releasing on Netflix.

Koimoi spoke to the casting directors of Ludo – Shubham Gaur and Trishaan. We asked them about the casting process and if there were anyone else on their minds instead of the current cast. Check ou the interview below.

Who was the first person you had cast in Ludo and who was the last?

Shubham Gaur: Abhishek Bachchan was the first few people. For Pankaj Tripathi’s role, there were a lot of known actors who were reached. But he eventually got the part. It was decided later because none of the A listers’ date was essentially matching for the schedule. He doesn’t have a proper schedule for instance if we like to shoot/reshoot. Even during Jagga Jasoos, Ranbir Kapoor had said that what he is shooting next, nobody knows. So, in order to gather the dates of a certain kind of actor, he needs to keep meeting a lot of people. The ones who are open and able to adjust his/her dates as per the schedule.
