Filming began on 27 September 2015 and was completed on 22 November 2015. Kashyap wrote smaller scenes: "Normal Hindi films have 70 scenes, my films have 220 scenes". It helped in making the film look bigger as the locations kept changing. The title was decided before the script was ready. The crew employed guerrilla filmmaking technique to shoot in real locations of Mumbai. During shoot, Siddique had to deliver a ten-minute monologue in the film. To maintain continuity, he had to be still at the same place while the camera setup was changed from different angles. As a result, he ended up speaking for 300 minutes in the same position. After the shoot, the actor experienced a blackout and could not talk for sometime. Kaushal's character is shown snorting cocaine throughout the film. To make a cocaine like looking powder, the crew had made a powder out of Glucon-D and Corn Starch. Kaushal practiced inhaling the powder for his scenes in the film.

Kashyap discussed that he writes smaller scenes as compared to an average Hindi film, so if an average Hindi film has 70 scenes, Kashyap's film will have 220 scenes. This helps in making the film look bigger as the locations keep changing.

He says that a low budget film must never look like a low budget film & for the lack of funds they shot everywhere in Mumbai.

the film was shot over 20 continuous days with a sparse crew, often guerrilla-style, in various locations across Mumbai, including the slums of Dharavi. During the shoot, as a result of the unhygienic surroundings, he fell seriously ill and was hospitalised for five days. Doctors at Andheri’s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital suspected dengue fever, but they were proven wrong when he recovered soon enough and returned immediately to complete the schedule.

He recalls a scene that was shot in Dharavi without taking official permissions. “We went with a four-member crew,” he says. “They had planted two hidden cameras in shops on that street, after talking to the shopkeepers. I got out of the car, did the scene, and just as I heard people shouting out ‘Nawaz!’, I got into the car and we were out of there.”

while shooting for Raman Raghav 2.0, Nawazzudin Siddique had to deliver a ten minute long monologue, which was shot from 10 different angles. To maintain continuity, Nawaz had to be stationed at the same place while the camera setup was changed. As a result Nawaz ended up speaking for 300 minutes at the same position, keeping the tone and style the same and giving his best every time.

However, the entire process did take a toll on Nawaz, as at the end of it all, he experienced a total blackout and couldn’t talk for sometime.

Vicky Kaushal's character in the film is someone who takes a lot of drugs, especially cocaine. To make a cocaine like looking powder, the team made a special powder out of Glucon-D and Corn Starch. Vicky Kaushal practiced inhaling this powder to give his takes.
