I was not used to doing loud characters. Baldev is not loud exactly, but he plays this angry hero all the time and that's something I have never done. In my previous shows, I am used to being a person who never gets angry." Bollywood Life noted, "His dad has accepted him as Baldev and so has the rest of the world"
