The original draft was 400 pages long and there were close to fifteen drafts over almost a decade until the filming script was finalised on.
The original title (working title of the movie) was VAASU, which is Mumbai slang for someone that is always in the scent of women. It was changed to HUNTERRR to appeal to a pan-India audience. That is the term used in the film consistently and HUNTERRR remains only the title finding no mention at all in any dialogs.
A lot of industry experts had felt the original title was a better choice since it would go towards creating a new vocabulary term similar to how "waat lag gayi" from the MUNNABHAI series has been now adopted into conversational Hindustani/Hindi however for easier identification HUNTERRR was retained.

In the first cut of the movie, the song "Bachpan" was not yet ready and the Nancy Sinatra song "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" was used as a place holder to go with the mood represented in the scenes following.
There is a song picturised on the kids in the movie that does not feature in the album called 'Tigdi' which is a pidgin word and roughly translated means 'the trio'.
Each of the lead female actors was the only one ever considered except for the character of Jyotsna.
