Talking about the upcoming film, debutant director Sarika Sanjot said, "I am so excited to bring this story to the audience. The film addresses such an important topic in a way that makes the entire idea of "condoms" acceptable in Indian society."
She added, "Unfortunately, we, as a society, treat the very thing we need most as taboo. The idea behind making this film is to make condoms a household name. I want the youngsters to be comfortable heading into a medical store and asking for condoms. There's nothing to be ashamed of, in fact, it's the most responsible thing to do! I want to strip the shame off from condoms and probably by renaming it as a rubber band through this comical adaptation of the subject might just normalise the whole experience of purchasing condoms for the youth of our country!"
Sarika, who is impressed with the film's cast, said "I could not have asked for a better star cast. From Avika to Manish, Prateek to Aruna Ji, from Pental to Gaurav Gera and others have done their part well." ALSO READ: Adipurush: Prabhas and Kriti Sanon wake up fans with a major announcement.
