Karan revealed that he has seen Sanjay and Maheep through the various ups and downs of life, and can say with absolute certainty that for them the center of the universe are their two kids- Shanaya and Jahaan.

KJo penned on the photo-sharing app, "I have known Sanjay and Maheep for over three decades….I have seen them in joyous celebrations, in quiet moments, in their lowest hours and beautiful destiny highs… battling storms that have come in their way with a broad smile on their faces and always an impeccable sense of humour … a couple that are deeply loved by everyone who know them…. The centres of their universe has always been their children Shanaya and Jahaan ( fun fact: I have named him ) …They raised them to be the most warm and loving children…."

Expressing his excitement for Shanaya's Bollywood debut, Karan added, "Day after is a day of sunshine for their baby girl…she is an exceptionally hard working girl and has poured her heart and soul into her debut feature… will ofcourse let her work speak for itself and I know it will…. Shine on Shanaya and welcome to the movies …. @sanjaykapoor2500 @maheepkapoor @shanayakapoor02 #ankhonkigustakhiyan."

A cinematic adaptation of Ruskin Bond's short story, "The Eyes Have It.", the highly-anticipated movie will also see Vikrant Massey as the lead.
