The buzz created by the steamy trailer, followed by songs containing sex scenes featuring sizzling heroines Zarine Khan and Daisy Shah, seems to have worked for the film. (Read Hate Story 3 review here)

“And all over wherever we went for promotions, we saw the love from everyone for the film. They were already attached to the film and what we saw then got proved yesterday (Friday). The kind of love they had given for the trailer, songs, they gave the same love yesterday to the movie.”

Pandya also said that he was pleased by the positive reviews for the film across mediums and praised the producer, T-Series, for making the film with the kind of actors and production values it embodies. (PICS: Hate Story 3 releases, five things to know about the movie)

“The success was only because of Bhushan Kumar and the T-Series packaging. I’m thankful to the promotion team for not leaving any stone unturned which made it tough for people not to accept the film. Story, seduction, songs, performance all worked for the film.”

Pandya had also directed the second part of the franchise, which was also a big success.
