Yashpal noted, “Dhavak centers on the emotional struggles of a boy who has nothing, yet is deeply concerned about his future. It reflects relatable middle-class issues rather than the typical Bollywood hero story. Its beauty lies in simplicity, with every word and gesture carrying meaning."

Our team feels like a family. Producers who invest money on such topics are very rare. I also admire and appreciate the producer, Praveshh Gaur who is a visionary man. Despite being busy with his other businesses, he remains on location all the time.”

Yashpal expressed admiration for director Yogesh Bhardwaj, saying, “I’ve known Yogesh since we met in his class. His sincerity and craft are unmatched. We’ve worked together more than I have with any other actor, and I deeply value our bond. Salute to you, Yogesh!”
