Ritesh Menon (Director CCF) -In our film we have tried to depict homos**uality as part of everyday life. It is a reality and not some alien concept. We wanted to move away from the stereotypical caricature of gay or lesbian characters in movies. That’s why it is a privilege for us to be showing the film to members of the LGBT community as for the first time we have shown a gay couple getting married in a traditional Indian function. Truly excited.

Siddharth Sharma (Actor CCF) – Well for me this role was like any other. I have never ever Distinguished between straight or gay people in my life. Yes there was skepticism regarding its portrayal as Indian cinema has always showed it in a cliched way. But then Ritesh he assured me that it is going to be a man loving another man.
And gave me barney stinsons reference in how I met you’re mother.
Not to mention chotus character is very real to real life as there are many out there whose family does not recognize Their s**ualities and forcing get get married. Hope they will take clue from this and be sensitive and accepting towards their children/siblings
