Speaking to Bollywood Bubble, Prithviraj said that Akshay Kumar is a "very inspirational" actor owing to his efforts towards the craft. He is a superstar but when one looks at him, they’ll realise how much this means to him. "He is still up at 4 AM and he is so strict with his diet, and his lifestyle, he is on set early morning and you’ll never see Akshay sir tired. When he is called for a shot, you’ll never see him tired, he is very inspirational that way,” Prithviraj continued.

Shedding light on Akshay's parenting skills, Prithviraj said that when he was shooting for the film in Glasgow, he got to know him as a father. He revealed that Aarav had come on the sets and hung out with them during his stay. "The way he is with his family or with his son, I don’t know if I’m allowed to give out information about Akshay sir, but he is one of those guys if you know him better, you will tend to like him," Prithviraj revealed.
