What Rajveer said

“I have such a shadow of my father that I have to make my own way. Everyone expects me to do an action film on top of that. So I’m just curious to know how the public will conceive me,” Rajveer said in the interview.

“I don’t blame them because they’re such fans of my dad. They’ve seen him succeed in that (action films) so much and he’s done it so well. They just want the new generation to have, I guess, a new version of my dad for them to follow. For me to be that, it’s asking for too much. And it’s not natural as well. It’s different times, different lives that we grew up in. But I can’t blame them for comparison. You can’t stop them. The best way is to ignore it, and keep working at it, what you think is best for you,” Rajveer added in the same interview.
