Hema told Zoom, "I'm sure people love the movie. I'm very happy for Dharam Ji because he always loves being in front of the camera. He likes that."
Hema also shares Dharamendra's nostalgic love. "Ghar mein bhi baithke, woh apni purani video dekhenge aur poochenge 'Mai kaisa lag raha hoon? (He still watches his old videos at home and asks about them)."

Talking about the film's success, Dharmendra told the media, “Bahut mazaa aaya (very happy). I got messages from people and I said, "Ye to mere daaye haath ka kaam hai kuch baaye haath se karvana ho vo bhi karva lo (It was really easy for me. Let me know if you have any problems. Any challenge is more difficult for me).
He further suggested to Karan Johar: “Captain acha ho with bahut acha khelti hai. Aur vous kehta hai paanch saal baad aaya hai. Karan paanch saal ya saat saal baad aaye vous apna johar dikha ke jaayega. Main jab ye kahaani suni mujhe laga ghar ghar ki kahaani hai aapres sakta hai ki sakta hai with trai. When I heard this story, I thought it was everyone's story.) That's a good story. Aur mujhe bhi jab jab mauka milta hai chakka maar deta hu (I beat him out of the park every chance I get). The place you all have in my heart will never let go."
Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani is released on August 28. Directed by Karan Johar, it stars Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh. Jaya Bachchan plays Dhanlaxmi, Dharmendra's wife.
