In an interview with ANI, Bhagnani denied reports of selling their office of Pooja Entertainment to settle debts post the film’s failure, clarifying, “That’s not true. Bade Miyan Chote Miyan flopped, but it’s part of our business cycle. It has nothing to do with property deals.” He explained plans to expand their office building from seven to fifteen storeys, highlighting it as his 45th construction project.
Addressing concerns about unpaid crew salaries, Bhagnani dismissed them as unfounded, urging those affected to come forward for resolution instead of airing grievances on social media.
