Expecting another revelation from the filmmaker, a reporter responded to Mahesh and asked,

“So you don’t really want answers?”

However, this question triggered Mahesh and in a frenzy, he replied, “There are no answers!” This came as a surprise for the media and his family as he shifted the blame for Shaheen’s condition on society.

“There are pretenders who claim to have answers and they institutionalize those answers and impose them with the butt-end of a gun.” He furiously added.

Trying to calm him down, Shaheen yelled, “Papa!”

Alia Bhatt, who was quite expecting this to happen, tried her best to interrupt in between and stop him from losing his temper, “I warned you that this was going to happen,” she said.

Alia was quite upset and irritated by her father and a visible discomfort could be seen on her face.
