Arshad had recently spoken to a news daily about his views on how box office works in India. The actor had stated that films are now made to cater to the audience on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, which according to him is a sad practice. Warsi expressed that a lot of films need time to grow in terms of audience. He stated an example of the film Sholay, saying that the iconic film would not do well today, because it did not do well when it had initially released.

Warsi stated furthermore that Sholay became an iconic hit after people gave it a chance, thus, making it a successful venture. It is said that the facility of allowing films to grow eventually with the audience is not available anymore, according to Arshad. In conclusion, the actor stated that one does not make films for the quality of cinema anymore and they're now made for box office numbers, thus films now only cater to excite the audience for the first three days.
