Earlier, during an interaction with Film Companion, Karan spoke about the length of the film, stating, "The film was three hours and 10 minutes long, and we have cut 22 minutes of it. I was completely ruthless, as was Nitin Baid. In fact, he made me add things back; I was actually cutting even more."
Talking about cutting the songs, the filmmaker added, "Get on with it; there are so many songs. Watch them on YouTube. I am sure in our Prime Video version we will have the songs. I wanted the length below two hours and fifty minutes; it has to be two hours and 48 minutes. I was combating those optics."
