The success press conference for the recently released film Zara Hatke Zara Bachke took place today at a Mumbai multiplex, with the presence of Vicky Kaushal, Sara Ali Khan, director Laxman Utekar, and producer Dinesh Vijan. The comedy drama has turned out to be a pleasant surprise, amassing Rs. 30.60 crores within just five days of its release. During the event, Vicky Kaushal delivered a heartfelt speech, praising Laxman Utekar and Dinesh Vijan.
Speaking at the Zara Hatke Zara Bachke success meet, Vicky Kaushal expressed his gratitude, stating, “Dinesh Vijan had every logical reason to bring the film to an OTT platform. But he took the risk of releasing a film like this in cinema halls in today’s times.” He further added, “We thank all of you because a film like this, which had a trailer that made people say, ‘Oh, this should have been on OTT,’ has managed to run in theaters.”
Vicky highlighted the victory of the audience and credited the confidence of director Laxman Utekar. He shared, “Among all of us, Laxman sir was the most confident. He used to say, ‘I am not worried. I know this story will reach the audience. I don’t know how well the movie will perform, but it will definitely connect with people. No one will say they couldn’t connect.'”
Expressing his gratitude to Dinesh Vijan, Vicky Kaushal acknowledged that the producer had valid reasons to opt for an OTT release for Zara Hatke Zara Bachke. However, Vijan took the risk of releasing it in cinema halls. Vicky thanked him sincerely, saying, “Sir, I genuinely thank you for that. Our film did not require a big budget; it was made with all your money.”
He further revealed the late decision to release the film on June 2 and appreciated Dinesh Vijan’s efforts in promoting it. Vicky shared, “Dinoo sir sat in his office till 3 am in the morning with his superb team at Maddock to figure out how we could reach out to people and inform them that ‘there is also this film coming, please give it a chance.'” With Zara Hatke Zara Bachke’s unexpected success, the entire team expressed their joy and gratitude for the positive response from the audience, making it a memorable journey for everyone involved.
