Filmmaker Navjot Gulati blamed 3-year delay in release of Mrunal Thakur-starrer 'Pooja Meri Jaan', which was first announced 2022, on its production house, Maddock Films. While expressing his frustration with price negotiations, he said, "An unending cycle. They'll never sell it unless they get the price they're looking for." He added, "They don't care about the small films they've made."
