We were hoping that Rishi sir would join us in the promotion of this film but unfortunately, he couldn't be here because he is recovering from his health."

Omkar said that Rishi Kapoor is still a child at his heart and he did a lot of fun while shooting for the film, he said: "It was a lot of fun to shoot with Rishi ji. He is still a child at heart so, on the sets of our film, he used to do a lot of fun and masti with us. He actually shared some interesting stories with me when he was shooting for his first film "Bobby". Apart from that, I have learned a lot while working with him on this film."

"Jhoota Kahin Ka" borrows its title from the 1979 film of the same name, which featured Rishi Kapoor (who also stars in the new film) along with Neetu Kapoor.

When Omkar was asked if there are any updates of the third installment of Pyaar Ka Punchnama, he said, "This question you (media) have to ask in front of Luv (Ranjan) sir because if he will make any film on the lines of 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama', then we would definitely love to be part of that film."
