Further, Ali told that he had thought of making Highway in various ways. In the April 2013 interview with the same, he said the film is primarily the story of two characters from very different backgrounds- played by Randeep Hooda and Alia Bhatt-who take the road trip across six states in a truck. He said that the film was his first digital film. While penning the script he stated he had to change many scenes of the film because he felt they were becoming too similar to his previous film, Jab We Met. As for the central female lead, I thought I would cast someone with some experience of life, someone who had probably been through some relationships. And then it all settled down to this journey of two characters.
And over time, it changed form and genres until I just gave up.

But with Highway, there was something very subtle, yet something very influential". Usually you lose interest in a story beyond a certain point. There was something in it that didn't die.
