As per Wion, while talking about his research and one thing that is common between him and Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Pankaj Tripathi said, "During my research for the movie "Main Atal Hoon," I found out, and it’s also widely known, that apart from politics and diplomacy, Atalji was a great poet and had an immense love and attachment towards literature and language too. Through my research, I find out he used to do poetry to convey his state of mind. I could relate to that because good poetry has a deep effect on me too, especially Hindi poetry."
