Priyadarshan reportedly told Pinkvilla, “I don’t know why and who is spreading this negative news. Tabu is not upset at all. I have done eight films with her, and if she was upset, she would have told me." He further mentioned, “I am the director of Bhooth Bangla, and I decide what to keep and what not to. The film is a big success, but some are trying to spread negativity."
