The movie was banned in several states for, apparently, hurting the sentiments of `adivasis` and other tribal communities. Despite that, the movie went on to collect four crores INR in its first week. The movie was also bashed by the critics, with most of them giving it either half a star or no rating at all, stating that it is more of a propaganda than a movie. The negative reviews and critics` bashings did not stop Gurmeet Singh Ji from working on the MSG franchise`s third installment MSG - The Warrior Lion Heart, which released in 2016. The next year, in 2017, he was seen in, yet another of his directorial ventures, Jattu Engineer, which highlights one of PM Narendra Modi`s projects - Swachh Bharat Mission.
