While the SOTY fame actor apparently looked afraid of something, Ishaan seemed to be in awe of his leading lady.
Sporting a moustache and a bunch of holy thread around his neck, Ishaan looked apt for his character in the film.
Set in Mumbai, the movie is touted to be an edgy roller coaster ride that develops around two young individuals. The boy-meet-girl story starts to bloom after their journey kickstarts one night.
The film, which will mark the directorial debut of Maqbool Khan, features Ishaan and Ananya together for the first time.

Speaking about the edgy movie, the Pati Patni Aur Woh actor earlier said: "I was waiting to do an intense romantic film and this one is just that. Ishaan is so much fun to work with, whenever he comes on set, it's like a storm has entered."
She further added: "The entire film is set at night! Tiger (during SOTY2) would sleep at 10, so we didn't do any night shoot. So for me, this entire film being set at night is a challenge."
Co-produced by Ali Abbas Zafar and Zee Studios, the film went on floors in September last year. The film is slated to hit the big screens on June 12, 2020.
