We’ve already been through so many controversies. We don’t need any more). “And I don’t think controversies make a film a hit. We’ve seen, in fact, that sometimes a film’s release is delayed due to controversies, for example, from Friday to the next Tuesday. Abhi bhi hain time bhai. 3-4 din nikal jaane do aur picture release ho jaane do, uske baad bhi koi controversy chahiye nahi (There’s still time, brother. Let a few more days pass and let the film release—there’s no need for any controversy after that either).”

“Kaafi dekh chuke hain hum.”

He added, “But yeh fact hai aajkal. Aajkal main yeh bhi dekhraha hun. In fact jo last waali controversy hui thi, humnepicture ka naam, Loveyatri. Utni awashyakta nahi hai, aurhumko chahiye bhi nahi. Yeh, parivaar bas without controversies life-long rahe. Kaafi dekh chuke hain hum” (But this is a fact these days. I have been noticing this lately as well. In fact, during the last controversy, we had to change the film’s name to Loveyatri. There was no real need for it, and we didn’t even want it. This family should remain without controversies for a lifetime—we have already seen enough).
