Recently, Rakul Preet Singh sat for a candid conversation with NDTV and talked about the film’s box office run. While expressing her gratitude to her fans, she said, “I’m very grateful and humbled by the critic and public review. The audience walking out with a smile is the happiest feeling. Ours is a film to be enjoyed with family and friends, and I am hoping more people go and watch it.”

The actress also shed light on her bond with her co-stars Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar, in the same discussion. “I love both of them, they are amazing,” she said, adding, “I am a person who actually deals with everyone. I am not someone who is an insecure actor.” She continued, “I think Bhumi is a great friend, she is like a sister and so is Arjun, you know it’s our second collaboration, I have known him for really long.”

Highlighting Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar’s presence at her wedding with Jackky Bhagnani, Rakul Preet Singh shared, “Both of these guys were present at my wedding, so they are friends before co-actors and it was a great experience working with them and like I said that this film was so much fun that it never felt like work. So memorable experiences every day, we have done, we have had so much fun, it’s not even funny.”
