During his appearance on Koffee With Karan 7, Aamir Khan revealed that he went through a lot of introspection during the pandemic.

Stating how he could not nurture his family and relationships much, he said:
"I've been through a lot of introspection during COVID. I felt, jab se maine hosh sambhala hai, since the time I was 18, I've been working. Tab se leke ab tak, I'm 57 now, my entire adult life, jo meri journey rahi hai, filmo ki usme mere rishte hain, unko maine shayad utna nurture nahi kiya jitna maine apne kaam ko kiya. Mujhe uss cheez ka andaza hua suddenly.”
