Answering the same, Heughan said, “PC is a pro, she is an amazing actress, a beautiful woman, and obviously so fun to work with.” Talking about their first Zoom call, Sam said, “It was a Covid movie so we met on Zoom where I forgot to put the sound on and my camera angle was also wrong whereas PC looked good as she had a professional setup.”
Furthermore, talking about his first meeting with Priyanka on set, Sam was quoted saying, “I remember the first time when we met during the rehearsals and we were only allowed to be in a room with each other for 25 minutes at a time wearing a mask. You can imagine that creating chemistry is pretty difficult, especially in a romantic comedy.” The actor also revealed that they tried the kissing scenes with their masks on which left Priyanka in splits.
