What the director stated
“I never expected any numbers,” stated Anand Tiwari. I’m not cut out for this game of numbers. There are those who are more capable than me to complete the task. Since we created the movie out of love, all I wanted was for the audience to adore it. It makes me very happy to see people responding so positively to the comedy, dancing, and songs.
Bad Newz is a film about the life of a character named Saloni Bagga, who suffers from heteropaternal superfecundation, a rare medical condition. The film features characters like Vicky and Ammy Virk, Akhil Chadha, and Gurbir Singh, who compete to be the best father for their children and win Saloni’s heart. Produced by Amritpal Singh Bindra, Apoorva Mehta, and Karan Johar, the film stars Neha Dhupia in a pivotal role. The Hindustan Times review criticized the film for highlighting stereotypes, such as Punjabis loving rajma chawal and women choosing career over marriage.
