Raj said to IANS, "We are not very serious filmmakers, at least on the surface. Of course, the seriousness with regards to the craft and the storytelling is there but for us work is fun and we treat it in the same way. We are serious about comedy, the comedy should not feel like comedy at all, it should be as real as possible."

Further adding more about their working pattern, Krishna DK said, "We sit and talk and gauge their potential. We don't do readings or workshops. We just sit on the sets and start working, so it's a very organic working environment, very interactive and also gives freedom to actors. The intention for us while working with actors is let's do something which they haven't done earlier."

Guns and Gulaabs stars Dulquer Salmaan, Gulshan Devaiah, Rajkumar Rao and Adarsh Gourav in lead roles. Raj & DK started their career with the English film Flavors in 2003. Some of their popular works include The Family Man, Stree, Happy Ending and Farzi. They're currently working on the Indian counterpart of the international Prime Video series, Citadel
