Talking about her role and costume Gurdeep said, "My costume mirrors the grandness of Rajput heritage. I will be seen in a bright lehenga choli with hefty meenakari work necklaces and huge nose rings. Mine is typically the heaviest costume, in the entire cast. It weighs around 10 kgs and takes me easily 1 and a half hour to get ready. But I'm enjoying this experience to the fullest. I have always been a big fan of historical dramas and that is also one of the reasons I took up the show. I have been watching the Hollywood series Crown to derive some inspiration for my role. Also, I've been really looking forward to the show to go on air and hope that this grand love saga is received well by the viewers."
