Earlier, in an interview, Vicky Kaushal had spoken about how none of them expected the film to be such a huge success. "Just before the film was to release, Aditya [Dhar, director] and I were discussing how the entire team has given their all - physically, mentally and emotionally - to the project. Though we were content with our efforts, we didn't expect the audience to go bonkers," he was quoted as saying by a leading daily.
