Ameesha Patel stated in an interview that the public is impatiently awaiting a full-length, enjoyable, and "clean" film in Bollywood that the entire family can enjoy. However, because OTT platforms offer content on a wide range of subjects, it frequently becomes inappropriate for particular age groups. “People are waiting for a good, clean cinema. The era where you could make cinema that a grandchild could sit and watch with a grandparent is completely missing,” she said.

Ameesha Patel addressed the subject of LGBT movies and web series available on OTT platforms, saying, “OTT is full of, homosexuality, gay-lesbianism… Scenes where you have to cover your kids’ eyes or actually put a child lock on your television so they can’t access those platforms. It’s not something you really want your kids to watch.”

Ameesha Patel demonstrated that she is not an open book when it comes to the representation of intimate and risqué situations in show business when she answered Bipasha Basu's remarks about her being too "petite" for portraying the role of Jism in a different interview. Although ‘Jism’ was a fantastic movie, the actress admitted that she was hesitant to engage in hot and provocative sequences. According to Ameesha, she felt uncomfortable exposing too much skin on film.
