While at the trailer launch event, Salim–Javed were asked about their favourite dialogue. To this, Javed Akhtar replied, “Ab aayega woh,” leaving everyone shocked. Continuing further, the writer-lyricist added, “We are going to write now. I have spoken to Salim Khan sahab ke ek aur aakhri film, saath mein likhni chahiye.” Reacting to this, Salman Khan quicky said, “Line yahan se shuru hoti hai.”

Akhtar then stated that they were paid more than a film’s hero during the peak of their career – in the ’70s and ’80s, and they would charge a huge pay cheque today. He said, “Uss zamane mein bhi hamari price zyada thi, iss zamene mein toh bohoy hi zyada hogi. Woh dekh lijiye”
