The emotions are similar to what I had felt back then." Pointing out that 'all’s well that ends well', Hrithik added, "There were some really tough calls that I had to take with regards to this film. Whether it was to put the film on hold when the #MeToo conversation came up for law to take its course or the decision to pre-pone the release date of the film. But I am glad that I took these calls. It is because of them that we are in a better place today."
Futhermore, Hrithik claimed that Super 30 has been one of his most 'challenging films so far as the requirement here was to capture the soul of Anand Kumar' and shared his experience of working on the film by saying, "I had a great time shooting for the film with such talented people, especially, the 30 kids. They surprised and inspired me every day on set."

The film features him sharing screen space with Tiger Shroff for the first time. When asked about working with the Baaghi actor, Hrithik signed off by saying, "I have had a blast shooting for this film with Tiger. Anything that I say about him will be less. My words won’t do justice to the kind of talent he possesses."
