At the trailer launch of 'Pati Patni Aur Woh Do' on Saturday, actor Ayushmann Khurrana addressed concerns around infidelity in the film, asserting that the upcoming comedy does not endorse such themes and is designed as a wholesome family entertainer.

Responding to questions about the storyline, Khurrana clarified that while the narrative revolves around complex interpersonal dynamics, it avoids promoting extra-marital relationships.

Yeh film inn charon ke beech mein kya chal raha hai uspe hai. At the same time, I think yeh jo mera role hai Prajapati Pandey ka... He is a green flag. He is a complete green flag, uska moral Compass bilkul correct hai…(This film is about what's happening between these four characters. At the same time, I think my role, Prajapati Pandey... he is a green flag. He is a complete green flag; his moral compass is absolutely correct.)

He added, “We are not promoting any infidelity because it is a family film. Everyone will enjoy watching it. It is just a comedy of errors. Ismein aisa kuch nahi hai ke Prajapati ka kissi ke saath affair hai. Aisa kuch bhi nahi hai..." (There is nothing in it that suggests Prajapati is having an affair with anyone. There is nothing like that at all.)
