I figured out out guys. The reason was there were some syntax errors
in other parts of the code (in my case, a ClassnameComponent was named
as ClassnameHelper), due to which this part of the code wasn't getting
executed.
Also, I shifted all the 'set's to beforeRender(). I was using a few of
these varnames in other views as well, so they ended up getting
overwritten.
I later fixed this by renaming the view-copy of these variables
differently.
Thanks for your time!
