Apart from Suhana, Agastya, and Khushi, the upcoming film also stars Dot, Vedang Raina, Mihir Ahuja, and Yuvraj Menda. The Archies is the fifth full-length feature film by Zoya Akhtar after making box office hits and critically appreciated movies namely Luck By Chance, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Dil Dhadakne Do, and Gully Boy.

The Netflix original film has been in the news since it was announced as some people have complained that the film celebrates nepotism as it stars Shah Rukh Khan-Gauri Khan's daughter, Boney Kapoor and late Sridevi's daughter, and Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya Bachchan's grandson.
