Speaking about the success of the film, director Rajkumar Hirani had told PTI, “Of course, commercial success matters to me but I try not focus on it at all because the moment you start focusing on it, then you start colouring the kind of film you want to make. I take three or four years to make a film. This time I took five years to make a story. It should be like… let me make this film whatever the fate of the film is. Sometimes you will get a universal audience, sometimes you will get an audience which is in smaller pockets. India is a massive country and there will be all kinds of audiences liking all kinds of films.”
