Ahead of the re-release, the director Karunakaran revealed that Amitabh Bachchan was ‘irritated’ and ‘imaptient’ about the film’s climax scene when he had watched it with his wife Jaya Bachchan. He said, “The climax of ‘Tholi Prema’ generates tremendous tension among the audience as the hero refrains from expressing his love until the end. While watching the climax, Amitabh ji became irritated and impulsively tossed his car keys at the TV screen due to the hero’s delayed confession.”
