Recently, Kumar said, “I think it is good because it is good for our industry that both films work and work very well. Holidays are coming.

Khan had previously stated of the clash, “I hope both the films do well. I have seen the trailer of Raksha Bandhan and I really liked it. I was asking do we make films that are relevant. Here is a film that is relevant. It is a film of a common man who does have problems with economic issues.”
