Production house Reliance Entertainment called the report ‘misleading’ and said that the film was shot extensively in India, including Lucknow. The banner also said they decided to shoot a portion of the film in the UAE due to health concerns of a large-scale production team in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
Reacting to such report, Pushkar told Hindustan Times, “We know how to make films in a certain way, and we will stick to that only. I hope people don’t think of it as ‘Bollywoodised’ or anything. There has been no pressure from any quarters to do it in a certain way, let’s put it that way. There has been no pressure from the producers or distributors saying films here have to be made a certain way. Nobody has had that conversation with us.”
Gayatri also added, “They liked the (original) film and they wanted us to make it the way we make it. We have not found any pressure from any side and we have done our best.”
