According to a report by India Today, the actor had previously revealed that the trial audience did not like the film. “With Raja Hindustani, we had a very bad reaction”, he said.
During the interaction, Aamir Khan also shed some light on how they decided to not make any changes to the movie despite the reactions. He said, “Dharmesh (Darshan) was like, “Oh God, we’re finished!” I told him, according to me, you shouldn’t change a single thing about the film. So it’s a science: you have to know what to take, or correct. We showed it to a hardcore Hindi heartland audience. There was a wedding happening in Dharmesh’s family, so people had come in from Punjab, Allahabad, and other places.”
