The film has a tough road ahead with one of the most anticipated movies of the year, 'Drishyam 2' starring Ajay Devgn in the lead, now released, and with that, the footfalls will decrease for the Amitabh Bachchan starrer.

The film apart from Amitabh Bachchan also stars actors Anupam Kher and Boman Irani in the lead roles. Parineeti Chopra and Neena Gupta also play a pivotal role in the film. The film which revolves around the idea of friendship was released on the 11th of November.
