Pushing the release of the film by four months, I think it did have an impact. The film is like a fast food which should be eaten without waiting, but due to the pandemic, this happened due to the late release of our film. We all had never faced such an epidemic. We had nothing in our hands. Justice was not done to our film. This film could have been a hit among the audience because the song of the film also became very popular among the people.”
