In an interview with Amar Ujala, Nawazuddin praised Kangana as a producer. He shared, “I have not yet seen a better producer than Kangana Ranaut. She used to create a good atmosphere on the set with her positive thinking. Everyone used to feel affinity. There is no doubt that she is one of the best actress of our country. As good an actor as she is, she is also a good producer.”

Besides Tiku Weds Sheru, Kangana is also producing Emergency, in which she stars as former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Kangana is also directing the project which features Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Mahima Chaudhary, Milind Soman and the late Satish Kaushik.
