When Divya was writing the script for the film, she knew she wanted someone that can blend well in different looks and a completely fresh and unseen pairing to explore more emotions. When Pulkit Samrat, Yami Gautam and Urvashi Rautela were finalized to be a part of the film last year, Divya's ensemble cast was all set to roll their timeless love story. Divya who ensured she herself chose the cast for Sanam Re says, `I was looking of working with someone pure and genuine who can do justice to the characters we wrote. Pulkit, Yami and Urvashi have a charm of their own, they stand out from each other yet can emote beautiful chemistry with each other. I needed pure, innocent love to be depicted on screen and all three fit the roles perfectly.`
