Why can't you handle criticism?” A second user commented, “Vanga bro grow up and start taking criticism in a good way... no one is your enemy..chill.” A third user wrote, “Sir, why can't you handle criticism...Not everybody likes everyone's work...There are haters of ‘Sholay’ and ‘DDLJ’ too...So ‘Kabir Singh’ and ‘Animal’ too can have.”

Appearing on the AP Podcast, Hussain said, “I think a film like this, it celebrates something which is not beneficial for the society. It legitimizes male misogyny. It legitimizes violence against anybody for that matter, doesn’t have to be a woman. And it celebrates it, it glorifies it and it should not be glorified.” He also mentioned that this was the first film he said yes to without reading the script.
