After the film ended, Aamir was heard saying, "What a film. My God. Bohut hi behtareen film hai (It's an excellent film)."

He was seen wiping away tears away after giving a standing ovation. "It has happened for the first time that a film has received a standing ovation during a private screening. I don't have words to say. The way you have captured the emotions of girls and boys of India, it's unbelievable. The way the children have worked is unbelievable," he said.

Aamir also said, "What a film you have made! It's a fantastic film. It's very unique, I don't know how you guys were able to make it. The spirit that you have captured doesn't come from logic".
