Diljit, in his interview with PTI, lauded Harshvardhan and also said that he loves him. Talking about the controversy, Diljit said, "I am not hurt. I am not sad. I am thankful to Filmfare Awards for the honour that they gave me. I don't think I was deserving enough. It's a big award (and) I think they would have seen something in me and so they gave me the award."

More so, in an interview with The Indian Express, Kapoor had expressed that he won every award except Filmfare. He added that people don’t know what kind of effort goes into it and that some awards have a jury and they decide it. He also opined that debutant awards should be for people who are relatively new to films. If Leonardo Di Caprio wins an Oscar and then comes to do a Bollywood movie, he is a debutant which is not something he agrees with, said Kapoor.
