In the clip, Sharmila addressed the audience and said, “Thank you very much and I hope you enjoyed the film. I watched it for the third time and I was still crying out loud, even though I’m in it.”
He also added, “Of course, working with Manoj (Bajpayee) and Suraj (Sharma), actually, Suraj makes you cry. But I kind of get a vibe with this young lot. They make it so hard on themselves. They can easily take their father’s money and move up. But they have to punish themselves.”
Taking to Instagram, Sharmila’s daughter Saba Ali Khan shared several pictures from the screening of the film. One of the pictures featured Sharmila smiling while her Gulmohar co-star Manoj Bajpayee had his arm around her. While Sharmila donned a blue and red saree, Manoj opted for a black shirt and brown pants.
