Talking to a publication, Bani J reveals that the character of Umang was written keeping her in mind. She says that when the makers of the show approached her for the role, they told her that 90% of Umang was written for her. The actress adds that it feels really great when you come to know that a character is written specially for you.

The actress says that she was thrilled to play the character of Umang. It was a very conscious decision that she made after coming out of the house of Bigg Boss, when the entire nation accepted her for who she is in my real life. Bani J adds that she is not doing the show just to do a role or kissing girls is cool and thus, we must do it. She concludes by saying that there so much more than that.

In the second season of Four More Shots Please! Bani J is romantically paired opposite actress Lisa Ray. The show also features well-known actresses Kirti Kulhari, Sayani Gupta, and Maanvi Gagroo on its ensemble cast. Four More Shots Please! Season 2 sheds light on a broad range of issues including same-sex relationships, infidelity, open marriages and misogyny, to name just a few.
