Talking about the project, Johar said, “I can’t divulge much. But, what I can definitely say is that it is a mainstream film with a strong underlying social message. Punit approached me with this amazing script and I immediately contacted Akshay who was equally thrilled with the idea. If Dharma Productions has to collaborate with Akshay, then it has to be the right kind of film. And, as I said earlier, apart from being commercial, the film has a strong message.”
Meanwhile, Kumar said, “We are two very passionate producers with one great aim—to entertain. Both Karan and I want to make our fathers proud.” The film will be co-produced by Hiroo Johar and Twinkle Khanna.
