Recently, in a new interview with Variety, Varun talked about the OTT release of the film. He said, "You have to make sure that you have a good film because here (streaming), I don’t think a bad film can survive, to be honest. You have to be a very good film to thrive, because it’s so democratic. The way things function here the word-of-mouth plays in even more."

The actor added, "The whole idea was to pitch this film on a global level, our producer Sajid Nadiadwala had that vision. Him releasing it himself, I don’t think he thought he can do that. But with partners like Amazon, it became much easier."

Speaking of Bawaal, the romantic drama film stars Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor as a troubled married couple. It is helmed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari under Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and Earthsky Pictures.
