Ishaan Khatter, who played the role of Shoaib in Homebound, said, "Only point of access was understanding the emotional strife. It is a character that's quite at a distance from me. We're actors; .1% of the country; this is a character that makes up 80% of our country but we barely see them on cinema; we had to walk towards the character. Neeraj Ghaywan, director, made it very clear to us - craft is not just what I want; we need you to become the character."
