Besides Sushant, Chhichhore also stars Shraddha Kapoor, Varun Sharma, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Prateik Babbar, Tushar Pandey, Naveen Polishetty, and Saharsh Kumar Shukla.

Both Tiwari and Nadiadwala had attended the ceremony to accept the Best Hindi Feature Film award for ‘Chhichhore’ at the 67th National Film Awards presentation held in October this year. Artists who had already been announced as the winners in March arrived to accept the honours from Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu. Speaking on the red carpet, before the ceremony, Tiwari dedicated the award to late actor Sushant Singh Rajput.

“Sushant was an integral part of Chhichhore, he will continue to be so. All of us are equally proud of the award which we have got as a team, and I am very sure he would have been equally proud,” said Tiwari, while Nadiadwala added, “We are dedicating this award to him actually.”
