Film defense
Khurrana calls his character a 'green flag'
Defending the film, Khurrana said, "We are not promoting any infidelity as it's a family film. Sabko yeh film dekh ke bahut mazaa aayega. It's just a comedy of errors." He also described his character, Prajapati Pandey, as a "green flag" with a "correct moral compass." Singh added that their characters are relatable because people often misunderstand intentions and actions in life.
