Talking about Darlings in an interview with a leading newspaper, Vijay shares, "The project came to me last year during the lockdown.

He further adds, "It is a dark comedy, and I am excited to be a part of the genre. It feels surreal to be associated with Shah Rukh Khan for this project. I absolutely admire Alia as an actor. She is phenomenal. Being able to do a film with her of such a nature will be quite interesting."
