Young Jacob Smith is Scottish and was on a world tour when he was spotted in Goa by the filmmakers. Instantly charmed by the little boy, the makers of the film got him on board and convinced his parents to let him play the part in Mimi. Apprehensive initially, Jacob’s parents were reassured that he will be taken care of and this made them relocate to Mumbai where the little one took his acting workshops.

He was then taken to Rajasthan where the film was shot and because of his Scottish descent, his lines were later dubbed by an artist. Jacob plays the surrogate child of an American couple, John and Summer who is later raised by Mimi in this heartwarming film.
