Annu Kapoor has finally spilled the bns and shares his perspective on featuring ina  condom advertisement. Calling sex a blessing, he said that " Anything related to sex and violence always attracts human beings". Saying that it's a serious topic, he told News 18, "It cannot be treated as a topic of stand-up comedy. We’re all a product of our parents’ sexual encounters. Parmatma ke diye gaye anupam vardaano mein se sex ek vardaan hai. So, we cannot be take it lightly or mockingly. Despite being laced with humour, these are subjects to be taken very seriously."

When asked if he is aware of the meme culture and hilarious reactions his Durex advertisement has got from people, he said that since he is not so active on social media, he only got to know about it from people at his office. He added that he is a happy about how the audience has percieved it since they have taken it in a "positive manner with a pinch of wit and humour."
