Mamitha Baiju explained that watching the children celebrate her performance reminded her of her own childhood memories. She said, “I saw two or three videos where little children were laughing and enjoying themselves during the Pattampoochi song and my comedy scenes. Some of them even got up from their theatre seats and celebrated.” The actress added that their excitement took her back around 10 to 15 years, when she herself would visit theatres and celebrate a favourite film or character. Seeing a younger generation react in the same way to her performance made her extremely happy. “Seeing children celebrate my film like that made me very happy. I cannot describe that feeling in words,” she said.
