Sharing her excitement on the film's official entry at CSAFF, Pragya said, "I really feel happy that the film is being appreciated at such a level. When I first heard about the story, I immediately wanted to be a part of it. It essentially portrays the reality today; how we are destroying nature for our selfish purpose. I feel it's important to give unconventional creators a chance to show their talent to this world. I am grateful that I got to be the presenter of Maali."

With its appreciation on several occasions, the film is definitely one admirable and realistic release of Bollywood.
