R Madhavan explains why the film\u2019s theme feels relevant today<\/p>\n

Sharing why the story connects with viewers, the \u20183 Idiots\u2019 actors said the film mirrors today\u2019s changing relationships.

How Madhavan sees modern fatherhood<\/p>\n

Reflecting on his own journey as a parent, the \u2018Tanu Weds Manu\u2019 further admitted that old parenting styles simply do not work anymore. He shared,\u201cThings that I grew up with, which were totally acceptable, where we love and adore our parents for what they did to make us who we are today, I can\u2019t do that with my son anymore. So, I have to redefine the rules for myself as a father to have the same amount of impact so that he turns out that way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Why the story reflects real families today<\/p>\n

The \u2018Rang De Basanti\u2019 actor added that the film may even offer answers for families facing similar conflicts. He said, \u201cSo, this film also the reason you should see this film, god forbid, god willing, you may see a situation like this in your family, and we\u2019ve got a solution for it. We\u2019re exploring options if such an event were to occur in your family, and that\u2019s what makes it so much more exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ajay Devgn views youth choices today<\/p>\n

Ajay Devgn, who also stars in the film, spoke about the mindset of today\u2019s younger generation. He shared,\u201cIn today\u2019s times, the youth have and think that they have the right to make their own choices. You cannot deny them or defy them, I would say. So, in a society like today, it\u2019s not exactly a taboo; there is a conflict but there are different points of view and you can\u2019t deny that both the points of view are right or wrong, both have their pluses and minuses. That conflict is very interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n
