My sincere thanks to all for showing support for my work and our film, and I’m hoping we can continue to make our country proud."

Following that, Torbaaz on Netflix gained international recognition. The Academy’s recognition of Band of Maharajas stands as a tribute to the hard work of everyone involved in this project—from the outstanding cast to the dedicated crew."
She also wrote, "I hope this inspires greater appreciation for the diverse stories yet to be told. This film holds a special place in my heart as it mirrors the challenges I’ve faced while fostering quality cinema throughout the highs and lows of my life. I am profoundly grateful to everyone who has supported me along this journey. Let us continue to dream and create more meaningful cinema together!"
