The film received mixed reviews from critics but seems to be doing well at the box office. In a recent interview with PTI, he expressed concern that people are warming up to romantic comedies after a healthy dose of action shows such as Brahmastra and more recently Pathaan.
He said, “After the pandemic, there was a certain shift in viewing. Maybe audiences are gearing up for action movies, big budget experiments, special effects movies, it’s a romantic comedy. I want to see if the public still gives it a chance. It is important for the film industry that such films work, because then the genre will always be alive… Otherwise, we will be stuck making action shows for cinemas. Sometimes you just want to go watch a nice romantic comedy and have a good time. To that end, I hope this will work.
