Director Imtiaz Ali told us that the cast and crew was divided into two camps, one of the black tea drinkers and one of those favouring black coffee.
Imtiaz is very fond of black Darjeeling tea and can often be found sipping on the beverage. "The crew, including Pritam, lyricist Irshad Kamil and most of the technicians also got hooked onto it," he said.
Saif and Deepika Padukone meanwhile swore by black coffee. Imtiaz added that whenever a new actor or crew member came onto the set, he would be pressurised into choosing one of the two beverages. While Saif would ardently campaign for coffee, Imtiaz would extol the benefits of black tea and this would more often than not put the newcomer in a real tight spot. Incidentally, tea and coffee form an intricate part of the movie plot.
