They had taken this call last week itself. I don't know why he wrote this sob story, but I am glad Mental Hai Kya is getting a solo release. I salute my producer Ekta Kapoor for making her way in this male-dominated industry. It's not easy to do what she does. I applaud her courage and power."

Despite the film being ready, I have requested my producers to shift and announce the next suitable date as soon as possible," read Hrithik's statement."
