After this situation took place, Ranbir Kapor, who was also the co-producer of the film, then apologised to Govinda for chopping off his role. The actor, in a throwback interview with a portal, had admitted that the entire track was chopped off because of Anurag and him. Ranbir had revealed that they had begun the film without a complete script in hand. By the time the movie moved forward, the characters of the film had changed entirely.
Talking about the same, Ranbir Kapoor had further said that it would have been very irresponsible and unfair to cast someone like legendary actor Govinda and not do justice to his role. The actor had added that it was regrettable the way things had worked out. They had to think of the best for their film and had to cut the track out.
