A few individuals were unhappy with the positions that Varun struck throughout the shooting. While he has his arm around Janhvi's waist in one of the photos, Varun can be seen playfully biting her ear while he is still holding her. Even though it was clear that Varun was just being funny, very few individuals found their attention captured by his antics. As soon as the photographs from the session went viral on Reddit, internet users began to criticize Varun and even reminded him of the uproar surrounding Gigi Hadid's kissing.
