Superstar Aamir Khan says the audience has the full right to be harsh towards a film and feels they got a chance to take out their frustration when Thugs of Hindostan failed. Released during Diwali last year, Thugs featured an ensemble including Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Sheikh. Touted as one of the biggest event films, the movie met with extreme criticism and crashed upon it's release.

Aamir said he doesn't need to "forgive" director Vijay Krishna Acharya as they all set out to make a good film. "Every director that I work with, they are good and their intentions are good. We all aim to make a good film but sometimes it doesn't happen. Filmmaking is difficult. I'm a team player. If my director has gone wrong, I've gone wrong with him," Aamir said in a group interview.
