Vishal Bhardwaj's star studded film with Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan was expected to be a sure hit, but unfortunately failed at the box office. Saif about the failure of movie said, "It was great reuniting with Vishal, and I think we made a good film but somewhere in the second half, we went wrong. Although I shouldn’t say this because no filmmaker does this deliberately and all decisions are taken for the betterment of the film, a couple of great scenes of mine never made it to the film. That was disheartening but I got some good reviews, so it was not all bad. My mother called and said she liked my role. We tried to make a film that was about the Indian National Army and had Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, etc. It was a bit esoteric, and I heard one guy in the theatre said, “Arre, yeh Chinese kahan se aa gaye?”. Maybe we made a film that went over people’s heads. It was too clever for the audiences."
