Expressing his disappointment at losing out, Harshvardhan said, “I have Bhavesh Joshi and a biopic on which I will start work from December this year. As you grow, you keep working on your craft and keep getting better as an actor. But at the end of the day if people don’t connect with the narrative of the story it, people will feel your performance isn’t as good as you think it is. In terms of myself, I have reseen Mirzya several times and there is not a moment that I can change about that film. Now when Bhavesh Joshi comes out, people may connect with it more because it is more relatable so people may think that is a better performance but that may not be the case. So it is all subjective. Yes, I was disappointed to not have won but I will be back.”

The Kapoor lad also felt his sister Sonam should have won the Best Actress award in the main popular category and not just the critic one. “Sonam should have won the main category. Neerja is highest grossing female film of the year and in terms of popularity, it’s massive. I don’t understand how it works.”
