He went on to speak about current and future projects, "We have just produced a comedy film and our next will be 3 Storeys which is a completely different kind of film releasing February, 2018."

He continued, "After that, we are coming up with Gold and Gully Boy, so all these films are different in terms of genre and none of them are comedies."

"I think people should follow what they believe in and the kind of stories they want to tell. If you try to do the same thing or emulate something which is not inherent, I don't think success will come your way," he added.
