Sharing how Viacom cheated him and everyone involved with the film , Anurag told Pinkvilla, “Viacom made the film. They have their own company Colors, they sold it to Colors. Then they said ‘we haven’t made any money, Colors has made money’, then whose company is Colors?”
He further added, “Nobody got any money from that film. And on that film, one studio earned so much money. They ask us, ‘extend our rights, let’s do a spin-off’, I tell them, why do you want to make a sequel of a flop film? The studio has cheated its creators and the actors, and everybody involved with the film.”
