Main idhar udhar dekh raha tha kyunki main genuinely shock ho gaya tha ye mere liye ho raha hai. (When the crew clapped for me for the first time, I was genuinely stunned. I kept looking around because I was in complete shock that it was happening for me.)" Further, he added, "I actually went up to one of the artists and asked whether they were all clapping for me, or if Mohit Suri sir had told them to applaud. He lifted his sleeve up and showed me his goosebumps." "There’s a dialogue in the film where I say, ‘Main waha jaana chahta hu, Vaani.’ At that moment, I forgot that I was Krish Kapoor. It felt like Ahaan was talking about his own dreams," the actor concluded.
