When asked does something similar to her as well, Sonam Kapoor the trailer launch told reporters, "It depends on the person and their confidence level, how they feel about themselves... My father did films like 'Beta', 'Ladla' and 'Mr India', where women had prominent roles and he was a superstar at that time."

Sonam Kapoor further added, "I have been brought up to think it doesn't matter as long as the role is amazing. But there were a few, like Dhanush, Dulquer, Rajkummar and Ayushamann, who I worked with in a couple of films. There are a lot of these men out there and they are all doing better than everybody else right now."
