To this, Shweta added, “It (Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham) is a film that doesn’t age. Agastya watches it a lot. Sometimes, he does not understand when he watches nana's (Amitabh Bachchan) films but Karan Johar's directorial is something he can watch over and over again.” 


Jaya Bachchan then said that Agastya watches K3G to make fun of her. “He watches it to make fun of me,” she said. When asked about her favourite films, Shweta said that she likes ‘Band Baaja Baraat’, ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ and the older version of ‘Death on the Nile’.
