Talking about the film, Suniel Shetty said, "Ye family ki film hai. Shayad wo ek film jaahaan aap sab milke ek saat dekh sakte ho. Agar ek baar aap TV chalu kar dete ho to uske baad aapko tension lene ki zarurat nahi hai, sharmaane ki zaroorat nahi hai. Aapko pata hai ki log sirf hasne hi hasne wale hai. Chupke TV ya mobile dekhne ki zaroorat nahi hai. Parivaar see chupane ki zaroorat nahi hai." (This is a family film. Perhaps the one where you can all watch together. Once you switch on the TV, there's no need to worry about anything or feel awkward. You know that people are only going to laugh. You don't need to secretly watch in on your TV or mobile, or hide it from your family). ‘There Are Three Heroes…’: Amid ‘Hera Pheri 3’ Controversy, Did Paresh Rawal Hint at His Return to Akshay Kumar–Priyadarshan’s Iconic Comedy Franchise?.
