Kim stated "What can I say about Naseeb? It was one of the most defining moments of my life when I actually got a call, asking me to meet Manmohan Desai. This is not happening was my instinctive reaction. We had a delightful conversation after which he sent me a message telling me I was on. I became a part of the project because Neetu Singh who had shot for two scenes already was getting married to Chintu (Rishi Kapoor) and dropped out. At the outset, I felt like a fish out of water on the sets, I was working for the first time with major stars. Manji's brief was that he wanted my character to be a fast-talking bubbly girl. "So just be yourself, but in Hindi," he said. We shot the Kabbadi song at the height of summer in the month of May. Some of us had headaches by the end of the day and were so deeply sun-tanned, which took about three months to get back to normal. My white and black Eliza Doolittle outfit was Manji's brainwave; he felt I was the My Fair Lady type, a hoity-toity sort contrasted with Chintu who was given the Charlie Chaplin look. I had four fittings for the costume; it was so tight that when it was zipped up, I was stuck in it for the entire day. The hat must have weighed almost three and a half kilos since it had metal rims around it. It was really tough to dance, when action would be announced. None of that showed on the screen though, that the audience applauded the climax number. I had a super time working with everyone, including so many villains. And I struck up a close friendship with Reena Roy after the film."
