Another user inquired about the film’s thrilling elements, saying, “Your movies have always been engaging and edge-of-the-seat thrillers. Can we expect the same from ‘Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha’? Planning to watch it on the first day.” Pandey enthusiastically responded with a big “YES.”
When questioned about what inspired him to make a love story, Pandey shared, “A lot of people have come to me saying they don’t find MS Dhoni as a sports movie but a romantic film, and that is surprising. But a story is a story.”
