He added that he guided his wife, Sridevi and his family members in their careers because it was his duty. Elaborating more on it, he said:
"Maine har wo cheez ki hai jo mujhe theek lagti thi. I thought it was my job and my duty, and I did that thinking that I was doing it for myself. If I guided Anil, it was not just for him, it was for us. If I guided Sri, it was not just for her, it was for us. If I guide my children today, whether it’s Arjun, Janhvi, or Anshula, as a matter of fact, Sanjay, whatever guidance they need, whatever my experience can give, it is just there."

Further, in the same conversation, Boney was asked if he received an equal amount of love from the people that he has given to them, and the producer gave a beautiful response. Mentioning that he doesn't believe in a barter system, Boney stated he got immense love from the people around him. In his words:
"Aisi koi situation nahin jahan mujhe pyar nahin mila." Pyaar nahin hota to do tarfa relation nahin hota. I got immense love. There was not such a situation where I'd not received love. If love wasn’t two ways, there must not have been relations. I got immense love. He further stated that he is not the only reason why they are successful, lest he has contributed 1% to it."

Talking about the same, he mentioned that they got married on June 2, however, after Sridevi's pregnancy was seen, they had to marry publicly in January 1997. In his words:
"My marriage to Sri took place in Shirdi, on June 2. That’s when we exchanged vows. We were there, we spent the night there. And it was only in January 1997, when her pregnancy was seen, that we had no choice but to marry publicly. In public, we were married only in January 1997. There are still some scribes who write that Janhvi was conceived before marriage."
