Director Hansal Mehta wrote, “The nation owes him an apology. More than anyone else, I owe him one. Whatever the compulsion, whatever small role I played in that travesty, or whatever the original intent, it is a regret I will carry with a very heavy heart. Sorry, sir. Beyond your achievements as an economist, Finance Minister, and Prime Minister, you were an honorable man—a rare gentleman in a field dominated by ruffians.”
