Amitabh Bachchan said, "Before we discuss anything else, I must tell you Anand Bhai what an exemplary and extraordinary producer you have been. As a producer, you have excelled and looked after the entire production and the unit so beautifully, I can not express it enough. I was so petrified when I was told that we have to go to Slovakia and that we have to shoot in the snow. I realised that shooting in -17 degrees would entail a lot of care and a lot of precaution given how big the crew was. I didn’t know what the exact number of the crew members was but we all needed warm clothes and winter gear. Anand Bhai, when I landed there, I saw every crew member, no matter what contribution they were making to the film, was wearing warm socks, winter clothing and there were impeccable heating arrangements available for all of us, so we could work in that intense winter. This was an incredible job and I truly appreciate it. Thank you so much for looking after all of us."
