Reflecting on the aftermath, he expressed a paradox, "After a long time, my film didn't work, so family and friends came to ask if I'm okay. I realized I'm getting a lot of love after a flop." Analyzing the failure, he stated, "Failure teaches you what really went wrong. It gives you an opportunity to understand your mistake in terms of communicating that story."
Deep in thought, Aamir considered it a significant learning experience, admitting to multiple mistakes. He confided in his wife Kiran, acknowledging, "Thank God I made these mistakes in just one film." Despite emotional distress, he emphasized absorbing the grief and learning from the experience.
