Speaking to Indian Express, Prakash said, "It's a great film. It’s a very well-made film with good acting by everybody. We felt there was a little bit too much violence, but the majority of people liked it, so I think that’s more important."

As Ranveer is deeply interested in sports, the two often engage in conversations about cricket, football and other games. "There are a lot of common interests, as he’s very interested in sports. He keeps talking to me about sports, and I keep asking him about movies as I want to learn about the business. We don’t get so much time, as they are all busy, but whatever time we get, we like to sit together and enjoy whether it’s football or cricket," he added.
He also shared a light-hearted detail about football preferences in the family, noting that Ranveer is an Arsenal fan, while his daughter Anisha Padukone supports Manchester United, adding a fun and friendly competitive spirit to their discussions.
