Quoting his dialogue, a fan wrote, "Bina compatibility ke shaadi Krna aisa hai jaise ghode ki gadhe se shaadi karwana jisse tattu hi paida ho sakta hai."

"I love this scene," a social media user commented.

"On that note I'll be watching namaste London tonight," another chimed in.

Directed by Vipul Amrutlal Shah, the film also starred late actor Rishi Kapoor as Jazz's (Kaif) father.
