Taking to Instagram Stories, Hrithik posted about the film saying, “Very very entertained by Happy Patel. Congrats Vir. The ingenuity of mixing incredible silliness with a relentless screenplay was so much fun to watch!” His note reflected an appreciation for the film’s tone rather than overt praise, highlighting its playful intent and narrative pace.

Hrithik’s reaction has caught attention, particularly as he has previously been associated with the spy genre himself. His acknowledgement lends visibility to Happy Patel at a time when the film is being discussed for its offbeat humour and fast-moving storytelling.

For Vir Das, Happy Patel marks a significant step as it is his first venture as a director. Known primarily for his work in stand-up comedy and acting, Vir’s transition behind the camera has been closely watched. The film attempts to balance absurd humour with elements of a caper, offering a tone that differs from more conventional spy films.

Industry reactions, along with audience responses, suggest that Happy Patel is being noticed for its willingness to experiment with genre and narrative style. While opinions continue to form, Hrithik Roshan’s public reaction adds to the conversation surrounding the film and Vir Das’ new role as a filmmaker.
