In the interview when Ayushmann Khurrana and Hitesh Kewalya were asked whether it was their conscious decision to make Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan a comedy, the actor replied that it was. He reportedly went on to explain that if there was no humour in the movie, it would turn into a parallel movie catering to film festivals. It might even turn into a documentary appealing only those who stand for LGBTQ rights.

Ayushmann reportedly continued that to reach out to those people who are against homosexuality it was necessary to add humour. Hitesh Kewalya also reportedly added that humour opened up people and helped people connect better. It was only after such a connection is built, continued Kewalya, that one could talk about certain things.
