Hence, the makers knew that he had to be mentioned for his contribution to the cause.”The source continued, “Aamir Khan gave creative inputs to the script of Binny And Family. He also whole-heartedly supports Newcomers’ Initiative and he also gave valuable tips on how to make the initiative better.”The source further said, “As for Rajkumar Hirani, he’s a man with a golden heart. If you know him, then he’ll always be there for you and he has stood like a rock as a support to the team of Binny And Family.

Finally, Sooraj Barjatya, too, has always given his blessings and good wishes to the film’s makers and team. The fact that he makes clean family entertainers is also a big draw for them as Binny And Family is also in a similar zone.
