Both the actors won National Awards for their spectacular performance in the film. Ayushmann bagged the 66th National Award for Best Actor while Surekha Sikri won the award in the Best Supporting Actor category. The Balika Vadhu actress was honoured with the prize for the first time in 1998 for Tamas, and won it a second time in 1995 for Mammo.

The story of the comedy-drama revolves around Nakul (Ayushmann), a 25-year-old man, is shocked to discover that his mother (Neena Gupta) is pregnant. His struggle to come to terms with the news puts his relationship with his girlfriend, Renee (Sanya Malhotra), in jeopardy. The struggles of Nakul to cope up with this news and his battle with the society just shows off some of the cliche mindsets of the people living. The stellar star cast was also joined by Gajraj Rao in a pivotal role.

Apart from Ayushmann, Surekha also received special birthday wishes from her Balika Vadhu co-actor Sadiya Siddiqui. Sadiya shared several photos of Surekha Sikri including one from her younger days where she looks unrecognizable. Sadiya wrote alongside, "A very happy birthday darling Surekha Sikri."
