In reply to RGV, a fan named Ganesh Lanks opined that he did a motivational movie, failed to self-motivate. Ganesh tweeted, "True Sir, The Man who acted in a movie called Chhichhore which is about losers and against who commit suicide, it was very motivational for many yet did not motivate the actor himself. Huge loss to the industry #RIPSushant."
