When Bachchan thought about the scene in question, he joked with Desai about how it didn't make sense and questioned the director's decisions. In the scene, three boys gave blood to their mother at the same time, which isn't possible from a medical point of view. Three different tubes were shown carrying the men's blood to a bottle that was hanging in the air. The bottle then sent the men's blood to Nirupa Roy, who played their mother.
