The OTT release of the film was also lukewarm owing to the negative reviews around the film.

In an interview with The Lallantop, Mukesh said that when one sarts working with Aamir Khan you forget he is a superstar ad look at him as an extraordinarily hardworking newcomer. "We auditioned a total of 13,000 girls for the four central roles, after a while, we narrowed it down to 400, then 200, then 100, and then, finally, to seven. He said he would like to personally audition with each girl,” Mukesh said Aamir Khan said that he is only playing a supporting character in the film.
