At the trailer launch of Sukhee, Shilpa spoke how she wasn't in the right "mind frame" to do the movie, hinting at the time when her husband Raj Kundra was arrested for making pornographic content. "I decided that I won't do this film because I was not in the mind space. I even gave them a few names (of actors who the makers could approach). They said they wanted to wait for me," Shilpa recalled. She revealed how the makers waited for eight months for her to agree to do the movie.
