ETimes quoted the actor as saying, “It is great validation, and this was the motive behind Dream Girl 2. I always thought it'd be like a commercial success when I heard the narration for the first time and I was rolling on the floor laughing. It was crazy, outrageous and very slapstick and very frontbencher and probably this is my most commercial tonality. And also the biggest opening. So, very happy!”
