Speaking about the same, Suniel blamed the show's format and said that Hardik might have overextended himself. He added, what can someone do when an anchor rams it down someone's throat?

"You know when that interview of him (KL Rahul) and Hardik (Pandya) came… Hardik probably got carried away. But when you have an anchor shoving it down your throat what do you do? So it is the format of the show, you get kids excited and they say stuff and then Bollywood is being banned."

Further, in the same interview, the veteran actor said that everyone should take responsibility for the results, be it the anchor or the guests, because just because someone asks someone a question they don't feel qualified to answer doesn't make that person less than anyone else. He also said people have the guts to say things as they are and should be. Suniel Shetty said:
"So I think we all, you as an anchor, me as a guest, we all need to be responsible because you ask me a question that I feel I can’t answer doesn’t mean (I should feel) that I am inferior to anybody, when that happens, that’s when things go wrong and it should never go wrong. You should have the guts to say things as they are and as they should be."
