The theme of the movie is all about the dowry system in India. Director Anand. L. Rai and the actor Akshay Kumar both have a lot about the theme and story of the movie and tried to present the movie in a fun way possible and at the same time tried to give their message as to the point as possible. With interaction with the media, Akshay Kumar says, “We cannot disagree with the fact that dowry is very much there in India. It’s in the layers. Some call it dowry, gift, ‘Sankalp’. It has different names.
He continues, “Some demand that they want to have the wedding on a large scale. I would call it extortion. The father, and the brother are not that capable, and yet they try to do as much as they can so that it (the wedding) happens,”
