Further, in the same conversation, Karan stated that Akshay and Twinkle find each other hilarious for different reasons and yet they are comfortable in each other's presence. Talking about finding love anywhere, the filmmaker stated that two people could find solace in each other despite belonging to different demographics. Mentioning how people tend to put themselves in boxes, Karan said:
"He finds her hilarious, she finds him hilarious, for different reasons. So I felt it wasn't impossible for people who come from two different demographics of society, two starts, to actually find love. It's like we put ourshelves in boxes. Like when we're finding a relationship, we put ourshelves in places where we're comfortable. But tomorrow, you can fall in love with someone anywhere."
