Swwapnil Joshi also spoke about how people would get their newborn children to seek his blessings and how they would come to set if they were unwell, asking for him to heal them. He added that because he was so young, he did not have much experience to deal with such situations. However, he added that there was a fantastic fan following back in the days.

Swwapnil Joshi also said that back in the days, when an actor did a mythological show, they were only offered similar roles. He recalled that because the audience was so sentimental towards their role in the mythological shows, they were not accepted as any other character. Swwapnil Joshi considers himself extremely lucky that he was able to break the mould and have a successful career in non-mythological shows and movies as well.
