The incident has drawn attention to the irony of Sood's past advocacy for road safety. The actor has participated in campaigns urging people to wear helmets and follow traffic rules. This perceived double standard has disappointed many observers.

In an Instagram post, they said the clips were part of a "professional shoot with proper planning & team."
