Karan Johar discussed his preoccupation with infidelity and the reactions he received for making a film on this subject. He remarked, "For me, I'm so obsessed with infidelity. I made a movie on it, and I remember someone telling me, 'Why are you endorsing infidelity?' I'm like, 'dude, you can't endorse something that's already sold out.' Just emotionally speaking, I'm always intrigued by the idea of infidelity and how it can be a reality," shedding light on his creative process.
Moreover, Karan Johar also shed light on the storyline involving veteran actors Dharmendra and Shabana Azmi in "Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani."

And there was drama happening in and around this situation. And my father had to fly down. My mother had to fly down. And I remember, instead of feeling terrible about what was happening between these three people at an average age of 82, I was like, 'wow, like this is great.'"
