Yami had previously said in a statement, “A Thursday is one of those rare scripts that come your way that you just cannot put down. Behzad has written one of the strongest characters for any female protagonist. Naina, who I will be essaying, is both fierce and endearing.”
A Thursday is being directed by Behzad Khambata who previously said in a statement, “I have never seen her portray an unhinged, pretty much crazy character. I was thrilled when she agreed to do this film. So now the excitement is brewing and can`t wait to be back on a film set.”
Earlier this month, the makers had unveiled the first look of Neha Dhupia who plays a cop in the film.
