Mittal revealed that people have taken the term ‘elevator pitch’ quite seriously. He went on to add that a person was trying to pitch him a business idea while driving next to his car. As quoted by Hindustan Times, he told Film Companion, “I think elevator pitch has actually become literal. I have not taken an elevator ride I don't know in how long without somebody pitching.” Vineeta interrupts him by recalling a person who was chasing Anupam’s car for ‘car to car pitching’.

Even Vineeta and Peyush shared similar experiences. They spoke about how people stop them inside the washrooms to tell their business ideas. Bansal went on to recall that one time when he was in his car, a person had waved at him from their vehicle. As courtesy he waved back. However, once he reached his home, he saw the person waiting for him. They got out from the vehicle and pitched their business idea to Peyush outside his home.
