In an interview, Katrina Kaif and Gaif had all praises for Salman Khan. Katrina, his girl friend said that Salman though attempts to look like a tough man, is quite weak in certain circumstances. “Salman can be won over very easily. He falls very easily if he finds some one is in a trouble. If you go and say that you are all alone and that no one loves you, Salman will adapt you”, is what she had to say about Salman.
Director Gaif also had something similar. “Every one thinks that Salman is always fighting with everyone in the Industry. But he is very helpful and caring.

Hrithik has met the Doctor who treated him in those days and turned emotional on seeing his doctor.
He recalled how he felt when he was not able to speak like other children and said that it is not an easy task to be the odd one out. “Children with impairments are called ’special children’, but we knew that we were special in a different way”, said Hrithik.
