Sharman Joshi, who has worked with Hirani on 3 Idiots, took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the accusations against the director. Raju Sir, is a man of immense integrity, character, honour, compassion and truthfulness, all the virtues one would imagine are non existent in people today, someone I am absolutely inspired by and have learnt from and because of whom I believe I have gone onto being a better person, all I want to say Sir is that this too shall pass and I can imagine how demeaning it might be to even stand up for yourself in a situation such as this, he wrote.

Apart from Sharman, Arshad shared his reaction with BollywoodLife and said, I have no idea about this and I can't afford to comment on this as it will not be right on my part to comment as I don't know anything about it. Until and unless there is a proper investigation, and everything is credible we will not know the truth. For me, if you generally ask about my thoughts on Rajkumar Hirani, I think he is a wonderful man and it s hard for me to understand and accept something like this."

Clarifying his stand on the issue, Hirani issued a statement which read, "I was completely shocked when these allegations were brought to my notice about two months back. I had suggested immediately that it is essential to take this matter to any committee or any legal body. The complainant has chosen to go to the media instead. I want to very strongly state that this is a false malicious and mischievous story being spread with the sole intention of destroying my reputation."
