In a promotional event held for Baaghi 3, Riteish spoke about his journey in Bollywood and the different genres of cinema being made today. Speaking about his father's journey as a politician, Riteish revealed that his father, Vilasrao Deshmukh's journey was nothing but miraculous, as he started off as a sarpanch of a village and went on to become the Chief Minister of a State.
Adding to the same, Riteish revealed that he has been approached with different scripts inspired by Vilasrao Deshmukh's life, however, it is difficult to show all aspects of the former-Chief Minister's life in a two-hour film. Moreover, Riteish revealed that he will proceed with the concept further if something interesting comes up. Furthermore, Riteish added that if the film's subject is close to one's heart, people tend to lose objectivity in creation, which ends up making the film boring.
