Fans have a ton of questions about Gehraiyaan and have found an unlikely person to answer them. On February 14, writer Sumit Roy's father Chandan Roy took to Twitter to share a proud message about his son's work.
Sharing a poster for Gehraiyaan that showed all the praise it has got from different portals, Chandan wrote, “See the movie. My son Sumit is among the writers.” Twitter found the post cute and wholesome with many calling him the true representation of all dads.
A few even asked some questions about the movie. “Sir, good that I found you as had this one question, was he just paid only half the dialogue writer's money as the other half only is about uttering the four letter word on the loop. No offense Sir, just wanted to get this serious concern from recent OTT movies be reached across," wrote one, seemingly referring to all the F-words used in the movie.

Hope you would be able to watch his next movie.” One person got rather mean, writing, “Tell him to stop writing immediately and enroll into a school.” Chandan replied, “Looks like the story went above your head. You need to study more to understand this type of movie.”
