JD Majethia said, “We went wrong choosing the release date for the film. We released it on a weekend when Sunday was the World Cup finals. For any small-budget film, Sunday business is very important, but for us, it was a complete washout. Secondly, our film fell prey to piracy. Many of my relatives called me and said they had seen the film at home. My office peon informed me that he saw the video a week before it was released. Piracy killed Khichdi.”

Majethia added, “It was not a big film, but still this film will work for 10 years on small screen because people don’t want to spend money on a film like this. Still, we made a decent collection, it closed near the budget. Two weeks after Khichdi, Animal was released, so we had no screens. We just want people to see the film, not only in the theatre but even otherwise.”
