Then we realised that you all are our family as well, so the film can’t be special without you. So, Mimi is delivering early. There are some babies who get delivered early, our Mimi is like that.”

He added, “So, please go and watch the film with your family, we are also going. On Netflix and Jio Cinema. It’s also the birthday of two of our team members, producer Dinesh Vijan’s and Kriti (Sanon)’s, who plays Mimi. We’re going to watch the film and celebrate, you should too.”
