Director Jagdeep Sidhu shared, "Sher Bagga is an unusual story for Punjabi cinema, which has thrived on simple family entertainers. The audiences have appreciated the light-hearted treatment of the film, which explores an unusual topic. That, in itself, is a great testimony to us. The film is a turning point for Punjabi cinema and I'm excited to bring Sher Bagga to a wider audience.”

“This is the first time that the Punjabi film industry has touched upon the topic of premarital pregnancy. We have done it very sensitively,” Ammy Virk said. “Despite the subject of the film, Sher Bagga can be watched by the entire family. It’s a light-hearted comedy film with a little bit of drama. The film has received a great response during its theatrical release, and we are confident that it will receive a lot of love and appreciation from the digital audience in India and across borders.”

“For me, Sher Bagga was one of the most challenging roles and I am extremely grateful that the audiences have appreciated our work,” lead actress Sonam Bajwa added. “I have worked with both Ammy and Jagdeep multiple times in the past. I feel ours is a dream team. The film has a strong, first-of-its-kind subject for the Punjabi film industry and I’m glad to be a part of it."
