Tusshar honestly admitted that he was immensely worried about the consequences of his decision. The actor revealed that he was anxious whether society would support his decision to become a father through surrogacy or he would face a huge backlash for it. The Golmaal actor also added that he was aware that his decision would break many cultural norms at so many different levels. Reflecting on his decision, Tusshar said:

"There were lots of questions that came to my mind as well. For example, if people will accept it positively? Will there be too much of a shock? Will there be a backlash in the media because I was breaking cultural norms? The book sheds light on all these queries and also chronicles how I decided to take the plunge and eventually found my true inner calling."
