In interviews, she noted that while the age gap was a topic of conversation prior to the film’s release, many reviews focused on their “cracking chemistry” rather than the disparity in their ages. Radhika Madan explained that the film addresses their age difference directly, particularly in her character’s opening scene, emphasizing that the connection between their characters, Veer and Rani, is rooted in mutual respect and shared dreams rather than superficial attraction. She stated, “They were fighting so hard with people around them to prove their own dream, that when they saw the other person and saw themselves in them, that was the reason for attraction” .
