Ranbir Kapoor had earlier produced Anurag Basu's Jagga Jasoos. However, speaking of his desire to direct films, RK said, "I have not worked as a producer. But yes, I have always wanted to direct a film. In this lockdown, I have also written a story, which I have liked very much. But I don't have that skill to write.. so that I can go and share that story with people and make a film with them. But yes, direction is more on my wish list than production."
