Nana Patekar, when asked at the launch about not being part of ‘Welcome 3: Welcome to Jungle,’ the veteran said, “I am not a part of it; maybe they think hum bohot puraane ho gaye hai.”

Vivek breaks the dilemma of Bollywood

In a conversation with the media, Vivek said, “If you take a look at the list of upcoming films and the most anticipated releases put forth by news channels and newspapers, none of them include The Vaccine War. For the last nine months, people have been aware that we’re making this film. This morning, an eminent trade analyst sent me one such list of the expected films of this month, and they stated that the next big hit will be another film that’s also releasing on September 28.”

Vivek then pointed out that in such a dire situation, the only option for him is to go for self-funding. He said, “That list of releases didn’t even include the name of our film, as if we don’t even exist. If we don’t exist, how will anyone even finance our film? Aise situation mein kua khud khodna padhta hai aur paani nikalna padhta hai.”
