She said, “Sara and Ibrahim are doing a wonderful job.



Ibrahim’s film was not good, but he still looks very handsome. He has tried his best. These things shouldn’t really be said in front of everyone, but honestly, the picture isn’t great.

Ultimately, the picture has to be good”. Sharmila went on to praise Sara for her dedication and potential, saying, “Sara is a good actress. She works very hard and is capable of doing a lot more.

She’ll also achieve that". In another interview, actor Soha Ali Khan, who is also Ibrahim's aunt, was asked about what advice she would give him after being trolled. She said one needs to develop a thick skin if they want to be a part of the industry.

One aspect that drew particular flak was the film's dialogue, which was ridiculed and criticised on social media platforms. The dialogues have been written by Ishita Moitra, known for her contributions to Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, Call Me Bae, and Half Girlfriend.

She collaborated with Jehan Handa, who has previously lent his writing expertise to the series Showtime. The film was produced under Karan Johar's banner, and also featured Jugal Hansraj, Dia Mirza, Suniel Shetty, and Mahima Chaudhary. The film was released on Netflix in March.
