Suyyash has gone on record to clarify that he was only following the script for the film and that he did not know the clip had resurfaced. He told a national daily:

"When I was in Bigg Boss this news came out. It was a scene that was leaked from the film that I did seven years ago. I was playing a scripted character."

"When I came out of the Bigg Boss house my sister told me about it. I first thought about giving RJ Anirudh a piece of my mind but then I thought why should I give him any importance at all."
